Summary

Exact solution of the hydromagnetic flow between two parallel, non-conducting, infinite planes, one oscillating and the other fixed, has been obtained. The effect of an applied transverse magnetic field on various flow characteristics is studied in detail for a small magnetic Prandtl number (Pr m≪1). The viscous drag acting on the two planes has been determined.
