The plasma motion in the dissipative layer of a flowing high beta plasma is studied. The linearized magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations are used to study the plasma motion. Using the perturbation method presented by Ruderman (2009) the solution of equations of motion are determined. The effect of the plasma flow is to change the distance between the slow and Alfvenic resonant points as well as the thickness of the mixed dissipative layer.
