Abstract

In suspensions of magnetic nanoparticles in appropriate carrier liquids—commonly called ferrofluids—an external magnetic field can control the fluid properties such as viscosity. This article provides an overview of the properties and general makeup of ferrofluids, as well as classical fluid dynamics. Some of the applications of ferrofluids are also described.
