Abstract

A physical and mathematical model is proposed, which is based on the Smolukhovsky’s equation describing the dynamics of the variation of the distribution function of aerosol particles over their sizes with regard for ultrasonic action, evaporation (for liquid-drop aerosols), and sedimentation. The expressions are obtained for the coagulation kinetics depending on the main parameters of action, the properties of aerosol and medium: the concentration and dispersion composition of the original aerosol, viscosity and temperature of the medium, physical-chemical parameters of particles material. Computational results obtained by using the proposed model correspond to experimental data.
