An Analytic Study of the Reversal of Hartmann Flows by Rotating Magnetic Fields

The effects of a background uniform rotating magnetic field acting in a conducting fluid with a parallel flow are studied analytically. The stationary version with a transversal magnetic field is well known as generating Hartmann boundary layers. The Lorentz force includes now one term depending on...
