In this paper, we study the transient flow of an incompressible viscous fluid in a semi-infinite channel assuming adherence at the channel boundary. We show that under appropriate restrictions on the data if the fluid is initially at rest and the channel entrance velocity and/or channel width are sufficiently small, the solution will tend exponentially to a transient laminar flow as the distance form the entry section tends to infinity. In fact explicit exponential decay bounds are obtained.

A variational formulation is presented for a class of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) channel flow problems. This formulation yields solutions for the fluid velocity and the induced electric potential in a channel with a uniform transverse static magnetic field. The channel cross-section is constant but arbitrary, and the channel walls can be either insulators or conductors with finite electrical conductivity. Electric currents are permitted to enter and leave the channel walls so that the solutions are suitable for MHD generator and pump applications. An example of a square channel with conducting walls is solved as an illustration.
