A new size distribution takes place due to dissolving during the motion of a solid-liquid suspended system in a stirred vessel. An analytical relationship was derived to represent the concentration profile in diffusion boundary layer between solid and liquid. An expression was obtained between mass transfer flow from spherical particle area and particle size changing with time during dissolution of solids. A mathematical model was developed for calculating particle size distribution varying with time during dissolution of spherical solid particles. The Focker-Planck equation was used to construct the distribution function varying with particle size. Model parameters were estimated by the Genetic Algorithm, the validity of the model was confirmed with experimental data.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessDissolution of solidsmass transfermodelingparticle size distributionspherical particlesturbulent flowArticle33452152610.1080/01932691.2011.5749292-s2.0-84859647836N/AWOS:000303571500009Q4
