Scientific paper
It is demonstrated that the generation of a magnetic field by the Nernst effect is impossible in: (1) a spherically symmetric distribution of temperature and magnetic viscosity, and (2) the presence of steady toroidal motion of an incompressible, electrically conductive fluid. While Namikawa and Matsushita (1970) prove that the stationary radial motion of the fluid will be incapable of sustaining a stationary magnetic field or of generating the poloidal component of the field, they do not prove that it is impossible to generate the toroidal component and do not allow for an auxiliary toroidal motion.
