Polydispersed particles in reactive flows is a wide subject area encompassing a range of
dispersed flows with particles, droplets or bubbles that are created, transported and possibly …

A new framework for the discretization of continuous population balance equations (PBEs) is
presented in this work. It proposes that the discrete equations for aggregation or breakage …

Gas‐phase synthesis is a well‐known chemical manufacturing technique for an extensive
variety of nanoscale particles. Since the potential of ultrafine and, in particular, nanoscale …

Discretized population balances of aggregating systems are known to consistently over-
predict number densities for the largest particles. This over-prediction has been attributed …

A new discretization method for solving population balance equations for simultaneous
nucleation, growth and aggregation of particles is proposed. The method combines the best …

A Monte Carlo method for the simulation of growth processes is presented, in which the
number of particles is kept constant, regardless of whether the actual process results in a net …

A number of approximate methods for modeling aggregation of particulate suspensions
have been extended to simulate breakup as well and have been tested by comparison with …

A new discretization method for aggregation equations is developed. It is compared to the
fixed pivot technique proposed by Kumar and Ramkrishna (1996a. On the solution of …

The mechanisms of growth of 5− 30 nm silver particles produced from the reduction of silver
perchlorate by sodium borohydride are explored. Evidence is provided that, within 5 s of …

This paper describes new and modified numerical techniques for solving the size‐and time‐
dependent aerosol processes of nucleation, coagulation, condensation, dissolution, and …
