Abstract

The problem of flow of a viscous fluid in a rotating channel is considered in the region of very small Rossby and Ekman numbers and moderately large Reynolds numbers. Asymptotic expressions with respect to the Ekman number are found for the velocity components and the longitudinal pressure gradient by solving a system of linear differential equations using Fourier series. The stability limits of such flow are predicted. Attention is drawn to a similarity between the velocity profiles of these flows and flows of a magnetic fluid and a fluid executing longitudinal oscillations in a fixed channel.
