The equations for ferrohydrodynamics, as derived by Rosensweig, were developed to describe ferrofluid flow

The momentum and spin equation are listed here. I worked primarily with the spin equation, translating it into a FEMLAB friendly format in order to perform simulations

My first step was the construction of the torque term in the equation, which is the last term in the spin equation here (indicate)
