STATISTICAL DISPERSION MODEL TO DESCRIBE THE PROCESSES IN A HOMOGENIZER OF THE "LIQUID-LIQUID"-TYPE
T. A. Baranova and V. A. Sosinovich UDC 637.134 A physicomathematical model of dispersion and homogenization in a liquid-liquid medium which is based on the system of equations for the probability density of the size of disperse particles has been developed. The proposed model takes into account the processes of turbulent atomization and cavitation reduction in size and the process of coalescence of the dispersed-phase drops. A. V.
