Abstract
Crystallization of a polydispersed system of crystals with a power dependen ce of the crystal growth rate on size is considered for a continuously orga nized process. The kinetic law describing the growth of ellipsoidal crystal s is analyzed in detail. Equations for moments of the crystal size distribu tion function are obtained. Special cases where the set of equations for mo ments is simplified are considered. A relationship between these equations and simplified equations for the crystal size distribution function is esta blished. Examples of calculations according to the proposed equations are g iven.
