Influence of inertial forces on the magnetic fluid flow in a clearance between curvilinear surfaces of revolution
This paper treats the steady laminar flow of the magnetic fluid through a clearance between curvilinear surfaces of revolution having a common axis of symetry. The boundary layer equations are expressed in terms of the intrinsic curvilinear coordinate system x,0,y. The method of perturbation is used to solve the boundary layer equations. As a result, the formulae for parameters of the flow i.e. the velocity components V_x, V_s, V_y and the pressure p are obtained.
