“…Under the action of a combination of a fluid field and a magnetic field, the forces applied to magnetic aggregates include contributions from drag force, magnetism, buoyancy force, gravitational force, Brownian force, thermophoretic force, Saffman's lift force, and Basset force. (21) Since only forces in the horizontal plane should be considered, buoyancy force and gravitational force in the vertical direction are neglected. Brownian force can be negligible since Brownian motion is not obvious for these aggregates.…”
