Population Mass Balance Model for Precipitation with Turbidity Measurements [PDF]
The discretized population balance theory has been proven to be a useful method to simulate systems in which solid particles are present. In this work, we introduce a new approach to model precipitation reactions based on the temporal evolution of product concentration, from which particle size distribution, its dynamics, and the specific interfacial ...

Population balance modeling in Simulink: PCSS [PDF]
In this work we develop, demonstrate, and distribute the code for a new Simulink block that models the dynamic evolution of the population density function for a physical system which can be modeled by a population balance equation. The name of the block is PCSS, for population balance modeling using the conservation element/solution element method in ...
