Abstract: | The stationary flow of a Boussinesquian fluid with temperature-dependent viscosity through a thin straight pipe is considered. The fluid in the pipe is cooled by the exterior medium. The asymptotic approximation of the solution is built and rigorously justified by proving the error estimate in terms of domain thickness. The boundary layers for the temperature at the ends of the pipe are studied. |
