Unidirectional flows of binary mixtures within the framework of the Oberbeck–Boussinesq model

Existence conditions are investigated for the unidirectional flows of binary mixtures describable by the equations of motion in the Oberbeck–Boussinesq approximation with account for the thermodiffusion effect. Possible solutions are classified, known and novel classes of exact solutions being distinguished. For the solutions obtained different formulations of boundary-value problems are proposed. Flows between two rigid walls with given heat distribution laws are described.
