“…Several theoretical models have been proposed in the literature [28,29] to describe the growth of particle clusters either by perikinetic aggregation (caused by Brownian motion) or by orthokinetic aggregation (caused by medium flow). The porosity of the resulting aggregates is taken into account by introducing a fractal dimension fr, relating the number of particles N per fractal aggregate to characteristic lengths of the system (d A : aggregate diameter; d p : particle diameter):…”

“…It is generally reported in the range 0.3-0.5 in the literature [21]. The critical shear stress is related to the force of adhesion F between particles as: is the energy of adhesion per area unit and depends only on the physico-chemical properties of the system.…”

“…As regards the situation in the bulk, it was shown that cluster-cluster (Cl-Cl) aggregation is the dominating mechanism of coagulation in a shear flow [41]. This is inferred from purely hydrodynamic considerations of capture (sticking) efficiencies at collision, which are much higher for particles of similar sizes (cluster-cluster or particle) than between particles of different sizes (particle-cluster).…”

“…Namely, the viscous shear stress generated during the stirring influences the fractal structures in the bulk and can even cause a structure break-up [41,42]. It was shown that, with an increase of the dimensionless shear rate G, a contraction of fractal structure occurs, and that a certain maximum structure density and size exist.…”
