Crystal growth rate depends on both diffusion and surface reaction. In industrial crystallizers, there exist conditions for diffusion-controlled growth and surface reaction-controlled growth. Using mathematical modelling and experimental information obtained from growth studies of single crystals, it is possible to separate these phenomena and study how they are affected by concentration, slip velocities...
Numerical simulations of the hydrodynamics and mass transfer involved in the rapid growth of very large potassium di-hydrogen phosphate (KDP) crystals with linear dimensions up to 60cm and masses greater than 270kg have been performed. The computational geometry corresponds very closely to the 1000-l crystallizers currently in use at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) for the growth of...
