    We consider the influence of fluctuation hydrodynamics on the diffusion of a suspended particle. The hydrodynamic fluctuations are generated by a fluid flow with velocity \(v_ 0\) through a rarefied system of randomly distributed fixed particles. These fluctuations are superimposed on the thermal fluctuations of the fluid velocity, and result in an increase in the diffusion coefficient of a suspended particle. The purpose of the present paper is to analyze this effect.
