Low Reynolds number flow of an incompressible fluid past an axially symmetric body in the presence of a uniform magnetic field is studied using a perturbation method. It is found that for small Hartmann number M an approximate drag formula is given by $ D^ \prime = D^\prime_0 \left(1 + \frac {D^\prime_0} {16\pi \rho vaU}M\right) + O(M^2),$ where D′0 is the Stokes drag for flow with no magnetic effect.

The Stokes flow problem is considered here for the case in which an axially symmetric body is uniformly rotating about its axis of symmetry. Analytic solutions are presented for the heretofore unsolved cases of a spindle, a torus, a lens, and various special configurations of a lens. Formulas are derived for the angular velocity of the flow field and for the couple experienced by the body in each case.
