The paper deals with the theoretical study of the effect of chain-like aggregates on diffusion and magnetophoretic transport in ferrofluids. Analysis shows that the appearance of the chains leads to a strong anisotropy of the diffusion transport–the coefficient of diffusion in the direction of appli...
