The problem of motion of a uniformly heated spheroidal 
hydrosol particle is solved. An expression which allows estimation 
of the resistance force of the spheroidally shaped solid hydrosol 
particle at arbitrary differences between the temperatures of the 
particle surface and the region at a distance from it is obtained 
with account for the dependence of the viscosity on the temperature.
