Abstract: We consider the Laplacian "co-flow" of $G_2$-structures: $fracddtpsi=-Delt{a}_{d}psi$ where $psi$ is the dual 4-form of a $G_2$-structure $phi$ and $Delt{a}_d$ is the Hodge Laplacian on forms. This flow preserves the condition of the $G_2$-structure being coclosed ($dpsi=0$). We study this flow for two explicit examples of coclosed $G_2$-structures with symmetry. These are given by warped products of an interval or a circle with a compact 6-manifold $N$ which is taken to be either a nearly K"ahler manifold or a Calabi-Yau manifold. In both cases, we derive the flow equations and also the equations for soliton solutions. In the Calabi-Yau case, we find all the soliton solutions explicitly. In the nearly K"ahler case, we find several special soliton solutions, and reduce the general problem to a single emph{third order} highly nonlinear ordinary differential equation.
