Abstract:
The system of equations describing aggregation and settling of erythrocytes or other weakly magnetizable aggregating particles in an external constant inhomogeneous magnetic field is investigated. The magnetic force applied to erythrocytes was assumed to be the basic mechanism of field action on the blood. It is shown that the magnetic field with a special configuration may decrease the sedimentation time and increase the suspension stability to small perturbations.
