Prediction of the Cumulative Weight Fraction of Crystals from the Growth Rate. Previously, the growth rate G was determined to be 0.03244 mm/h for a residence time of 3.38 h. Using these values, predict the cumulative weight fraction versus size L. Compare the predicted values with the experimental values.

2-1. Growth and Nucleation Rate in an MSMPR Crystallizer. Experimental data were obtained for an MSMPR crystallizer (S2). The slurry density is 169g/L, the crystal density is 1.65g/m3, the residence time is 6.57h, and the shape factor a is 0.98 . The screen analysis of the crystals is as follows: Using these data, do as follows: (a) Calculate the population density, growth rate, and nucleation rate. Also, calculate the average size La. (b) Using these calculated values, predict the cumulative weight fraction versus size L from the experimental value of G and . Compare the predicted and experimental values. Ans. (a) G=0.01673mm/h; (b) For L=0.589mm,(1Wf)=0.218
