Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fully developed flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid in a vertical channel during combined convection, with asymmetric heating of the wall, under the influence of a constant pressure gradient and in the presence of an uniform transverse magnetic field, is studied. Exact solution of the governing equation is obtained in a closed form. The solution in dimensionless form contains two pertinent flow parameters, viz. M (the Hartmann number) and Gr(the Grashof number). The limiting cases of a MHD forced and free convection are analyses, what has not beem done earlier in the literature. The occurrence of flow reversal indicates that there arises a flow reversal at the cold wall when r[sub T] = 1 while, for r[sub T] < 1, no flow reversal is possible in the absence of magnetic forces.

Combined free and forced convective flow of an electrically conducting viscous incompressible fluid in a rotating parallel plate channel with perfectly conducting walls is investigated. Exact solutions of the governing equations for the fully developed flow are obtained in closed form. It is found that the resultant shear stresses at the walls decrease with the increase in both the rotation parameter K^2 and the magnetic parameter M^2. The rate of heat transfer at both walls decreases with the increase in the Grashof number G.
