We present results of mathematical modeling of a macroscopic circulating flow induced by nonuniform oscillating magnetic field in a ferrofluid cloud subjected in a cylinder filled with a nonmagnetic fluid. The aim of this work is development of a scientific basis for a progressive method of an address drug delivery in thrombosed blood vessels with the help of the magnetically induced circulation flow. Our results show that the initial shape of the ferrofluid cloud crucially influences on the flow structure and velocity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
