Kn. Agafonov et al., EXPERIMENTAL AND NUMERICAL STUDY INTO THE FORMATION OF A FINELY DIVIDED POWDER OF TITANIUM-DIOXIDE IN A TUBULAR PLASMOCHEMICAL REACTOR, Theoretical foundations of chemical engineering, 30(1), 1996, pp. 70-74
Evolution of a finely divided powder of titanium dioxide formed on oxi
dation of titanium particles in a stream of air plasma is studied expe
rimentally. The mathematical model of coagulative formation of finely
dispersed particles in a plasma stream, based on the method of moments
, is used to study the process numerically. A satisfactory agreement b
etween the experimental and calculated data is obtained.
