Transport phenomena in partially spin-polarized /sup 3/He--/sup 4/He solutions are investigated. The polarization causes considerable changes in kinetic coefficients and also gives rise to new dissipative processs, such as spin thermodiffusion and second viscosity. The transport coefficients are calculated for degenerate and nondegenerate /sup 3/Heup-arrow--/sup 4/He solutions. The absorption of first- and second-sound waves is studied. Second-sound propagation is affected by weak dipole interactions and its velocity depends signficantly on the frequency.
