Using a three-current model for heat, spin-up and spin-down electrons, the thermodynamics of irreversible processes predicts that a temperature gradient gives rise to a spin current under the conditions used to measure what is called the spin Seebeck effect. A diffusive current proportional to a gradient of the chemical potential is known in thermochemistry as a Soret effect or thermophoresis.
