A new class of exact solutions of nonlinear and linearized Navier–Stokes equations has been proposed, which generalize the well-known family of exact solutions in which the velocity is linear...

This article discusses the possibility of using the Lin–Sidorov–Aristov class of exact solutions and its modifications to describe the flows of a fluid with microstructure (with couple stresses). The presence of couple shear stresses is a consequence of taking into account the rotational degrees of freedom for an elementary volume of a micropolar liquid. Thus, the Cauchy stress tensor is not symmetric. The article presents exact solutions for describing unidirectional (layered), shear and three-dimensional flows of a micropolar viscous incompressible fluid. New statements of boundary value problems are formulated to describe generalized classical Couette, Stokes and Poiseuille flows. These flows are created by non-uniform shear stresses and velocities. A study of isobaric shear flows of a micropolar viscous incompressible fluid is presented. Isobaric shear flows are described by an overdetermined system of nonlinear partial differential equations (system of Navier–Stokes equations and incompressibility equation). A condition for the solvability of the overdetermined system of equations is provided. A class of nontrivial solutions of an overdetermined system of partial differential equations for describing isobaric fluid flows is constructed. The exact solutions announced in this article are described by polynomials with respect to two coordinates. The coefficients of the polynomials depend on the third coordinate and time.

We present a new exact solution of the thermal diffusion equations for steady-state shear flows of a binary fluid. Shear fluid flows are used in modeling and simulating large-scale currents of the world ocean, motions in thin layers of fluid, fluid flows in processes, and apparatuses of chemical technology. To describe the steady shear flows of an incompressible fluid, the system of Navier–Stokes equations in the Boussinesq approximation is redefined, so the construction of exact and numerical solutions to the equations of hydrodynamics is a very difficult and urgent task. A non-trivial exact solution is constructed in the Lin-Sidorov-Aristov class. For this class of exact solutions, the hydrodynamic fields (velocity field, pressure field, temperature field, and solute concentration field) were considered as linear forms in the x and y coordinates. The coefficients of linear forms depend on the third coordinate z. Thus, when considering a shear flow, the two-dimensional velocity field depends on three coordinates. It is worth noting that the solvability condition given in the article imposes a condition (relation) only between the velocity gradients. A theorem on the uniqueness of the exact solution in the Lin–Sidorov–Aristov class is formulated. The remaining coefficients of linear forms for hydrodynamic fields have functional arbitrariness. To illustrate the exact solution of the overdetermined system of Oberbeck–Boussinesq equations, a boundary value problem was solved to describe the complex convection of a vertical swirling fluid without its preliminary rotation. It was shown that the velocity field is highly stratified. Complex countercurrents are recorded in the fluid.

This paper describes an overdetermined system of equations that describe three-dimensional layered unsteady flows of a. viscous incompressible fluid at a. constant pressure. Studying the compatibility of this system makes it possible to reduce it to coupled quasilinear parabolic equations for velocity components. The reduced equations allow constructing several classes of exact solutions. In particular, polynomial and spatially localized self-similar solutions of the equations of motion are obtained. The transition to the ideal fluid limit is investigated.
