In this paper, we show that the nonlinear growth rate of particles in a supersaturated solution or supercooled melt, as well as the rate of removal of crystals from the metastable liquid of a crystallizer, significantly change the size-distribution function of crystals. Taking these rates into account, we present a complete analytical solution of the integro-differential model describing the transient nucleation of solid particles and their evolution in a metastable liquid. The distribution function and metastability degree (supersaturation or supercooling) are found by means of the separation of variables and saddle-point methods. The nonlinear growth rates of crystals in supersaturated solutions and supercooled melts (single-component and binary) are summarized and compared with experimental data. This article is part of the theme issue 'Heterogeneous materials: metastable and non-ergodic internal structures'.
在本文中,我们表明,过饱和溶液或过冷熔体中颗粒的非线性生长速率,以及结晶器亚稳液体中晶体的去除速率,会显著改变晶体的尺寸分布函数。考虑到这些速率,我们给出了一个积分 - 微分模型的完整解析解,该模型描述了固体颗粒的瞬态成核及其在亚稳液体中的演化。通过变量分离和鞍点方法得到了分布函数和亚稳度(过饱和度或过冷度)。总结了过饱和溶液和过冷熔体(单组分和二元)中晶体的非线性生长速率,并与实验数据进行了比较。本文是主题为“异质材料:亚稳和非遍历内部结构”的一部分。
