A stochastic approach to colloidal particle collision/agglomeration
نویسندگان
چکیده
Colloidal particles that experience perfectly elastic collisions can be modeled using Langevin processes with specular reflection conditions. The article presents a discretization scheme and offers a conjecture for the rate of convergence of the bias produced. Numerically, these conjectures are confirmed for the specular reflection scheme but also for the absorption scheme, which models perfect agglomeration.

Eulerian-lagrangian Modelling with Stochastic Approach for Droplet-droplet Collisions
In recent years, there has been growing interest to use computational fluid dynamics (CFD) for exploring dropletparticles interaction under the turbulent flow of air inside spray dryer systems. The final goal is to predict the dried solid particle size and mass flux distributions under the conditions of collision, coalescence and agglomeration of the droplets and particles. The coarse-grained s...
متن کاملSpherical Oil Agglomeration (SOA)/ Colloidal Gas Aphrons (CGA) Flotation
The main aim of this experimental work was to develop a separation process using micro- bubbles less than 100 µm in diameter. Micro-agglomerates were produced using 10kg crude oil/tone feed coal treated compared to 250 kg/tone feed coal treated for conventional spherical oil agglomeration. These micro-agglomerates were separated from the unagglomerated minerals by micro-bubble flotation. Colloi...
متن کاملOptimization of the Inflationary Inventory Control Model under Stochastic Conditions with Simpson Approximation: Particle Swarm Optimization Approach
In this study, we considered an inflationary inventory control model under non-deterministic conditions. We assumed the inflation rate as a normal distribution, with any arbitrary probability density function (pdf). The objective function was to minimize the total discount cost of the inventory system. We used two methods to solve this problem. One was the classic numerical approach which turne...
متن کاملMilk powder agglomerate growth and properties in fluidized bed agglomeration
Fluidized bed agglomeration is used to produce large and porous dry agglomerates with improved instant properties. Water (or binder solution) is sprayed in the fluidized bed of particles to render their surface sticky. The agglomerate growth results from the repetition of different steps (wetting of the particle surface, particles collision and bridging, and drying) and depends on the processin...
متن کاملHow to impose stick boundary conditions in coarse-grained hydrodynamics of Brownian colloids and semi-flexible fiber rheology.
Long-range hydrodynamics between colloidal particles or fibers is modelled by the fluid particle model. Two methods are considered to impose the fluid boundary conditions at colloidal surfaces. In the first method radial and transverse friction forces between particle and solvent are applied such that the correct friction and torque follows for moving or rotating particles. The force coefficien...
