Steady thermo-diffusive shear Couette flow of incompressible fluid. Velocity field analysis

An exact solution that describes steady flow of viscous incompressible fluid with coupled convective and diffusion effects (coupled dissipative Soret and Dufour effects) has been found. To analyze shear fluid flow an over-determined boundary value problem has been solved. The over-determination of the boundary value problem is caused by the advantage of number of equations in non-linear OberbeckBoussinesq system against number of unknown functions (two components of velocity vector, pressure, temperature and concentration of dissolved substance). Non-trivial exact solution of system consisting of OberbeckBoussinesq equations, incompressibility equation, heat conductivity equation and concentration equation has been built as BirichOstroumov class exact solution. Since the exact solution a priori satisfies the incompressibility equation the over-determined system is solvable. Existence of stagnation points is shown both in general flow and in secondary fluid motion without vorticity. Conditions of countercurrent appearance are found.
