Abstract
The MHD Couette flow of a viscous stratified fluid of large electrical conductivity with suction and injection at the plane boundaries is studied when the plane boundaries are maintained at different temperatures. The Oseen type governing equations are formulated using the method suggested by Greenspan for stratified fluids. Introducing the similarity variables, the linearised equations are solved to obtain the velocity and temperature distributions. The results show that the behaviour of velocity and temperature in fluids of large conductivity is different from the behaviour of velocity and temperature for fluids of finite conductivity. The effect of the magnetic field on the load capacity is investigated for the case when the width of the channel is small.
