$9\mathrm{.}2$ Nucleation and Growth Rates from Crystal Size Distribution Data Crystal s

distribution $($CSD$)$ data were obtained with a multichannel Coulter counter durins

crystallization experiment in a batch agitated vessel with isothermal conditions. T

results of two CSD samples taken at different times differing by a small time inter

are shown in Table P$9\mathrm{.}2.$ Use the method of moments analysis to determine the av

age nucleation and growth rates. At each time, also determine the population avera

crystal size. $($Data from N$.$ S$.$ Tavare, Industrial Crystallization, p$.180,$ Plenum Pre
