Figure 3

Curves of the change of concentration of the disperse phase along the height of the tube at various moments of time. Curves 1 and 2 when t = 60 min, 3 and 4 when t = 25 min, 5 and 6 when t = 5 min. Curves 1, 3 and 5 correspond to precipitation without border conditions, and 2, 4 and 6 with border conditions. Aggregation coefficient K = 10-5 for all curves. Horizontal axis: concentration of the second phase (f 2 ); vertical axis: distance (millimeters)
