The varying degrees of short- and long-range order exhibited by multicomponent solids complicates a first-principles calculation of nondilute diffusion coefficients. Temporal and spatial variations in the local degree of order affect the migration barriers of individual hops and can result in strong correlations between successive hops that ultimately affect macroscopic transport coefficients. Here we report on a first-principles study of diffusion in Ni-rich Ni-Al alloys. We used cluster expansion Hamiltonians to describe the energies of the end states and migration barriers of each hop. Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations were performed to calculate macroscopic transport coefficients. Variations in the degree of ordering are shown to play a significant role in affecting diffusion coefficients. While Al has a higher mobility than Ni in the disordered Ni-rich fcc solid solution, it becomes significantly less mobile in the ordered $L{1}_{2}\phantom{\rule{4pt}{0ex}}{\ensuremath{\gamma}}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ phase due to strong thermodynamic tendencies that keep Al trapped to disconnected sublattice sites.
