Using subdivision potential approach and mean-field theory for a ferromagnetic cluster, we obtained nanothermodynamic properties for a ferromagnetic nanocluster in the presence and also the absence of the magnetic field. The subdivision potential and the magnetic field both makes Gibbs and Helmholtz free energies of the ferromagnetic nanocluster stand at a lower level compared to those of the ferromagnetic cluster. Our main conclusion is that the presence of the magnetic field leads to decrease in the amount of specific heat capacity for the ferromagnetic cluster. On the other hand, this effect leads to increase in the amount of specific heat capacity for the ferromagnetic nanocluster.
