Abstract
The influence of a magnetic field on the boundary layer on a flat plate in a sufficiently strongly ionized gas stream is studied. The magnetic field is parallel to the plate and to the velocity of the free stream, and it is so strong that the transport coefficients become anisotropic (the cyclotron rotation frequency of the charged particles is greater than or equal to the order of the frequency of the particle collisions). Using the results of [1–3] it is shown that the effect of the strong longitudinal magnetic field with a sufficiently high degree of gas ionization leads to a reduction in the thermal flux to the plate. For low degrees of ionization this effect is very small, since the viscosity and heat conduction in this case are determined by the neutral component of the gas.
