A finite difference analysis is employed to investigate the laminar magnetohydrodynamic flow in the entrance region of a flat channel. The velocity is assumed to be parabolic (nonmagnetohydrodynamic fully developed) at the entry and develops to Hartmann velocity in this magnetohydrodynamic entrance region. Velocity profiles, entrance lengths, and pressure drops are numerically computed at values of the Hartmann number of 2.5, 4, 10, and 50. Values of the entrance length computed are compared with the only available results by Maciulaitis and Loeffler. The comparison shows a substantial difference.
