Abstract:A simplified, systematic approach to the mathematical simulation of crystallizers is attempted by using the fundamental principles of mass conservation, via a population balance to the solid phase and a solute balance to both solid and liquid phases. A continuous, isothermal and isochoric crystallizer is assumed to be described by the MSMPR model under transient operating conditions with complete micromixing. The birth and death functions are assumed nil. Homogeneous nucleation is considered at a rate which is… Show more
