Abstract
The population balance is an indispensable tool for studying colloidal, aerosol, and, in general, particulate systems. The need to incorporate spatial variation (imposed by flow) to it invokes the reduction of its complexity and degrees of freedom. It has been shown in the past that the method of moments and, in particular, the log-normal approximation can serve this purpose for certain phenomena and mechanisms. However, it is not adequate to treat gravitational deposition. In the present work, the ability of the particular method to treat diffusional and convective diffusional depositions relevant to colloid systems is studied in detail.
