AB - In this study we develop a methodology for predicting the particle size distribution(PSD)inparticulate process, a process used for producing particulate materials,by coupling population balance modelling and direct numerical simulation. Itis employed in investigating the turbulent precipitation of BaSO4in a T-mixer.The high resolution allowed us to capture the dominating mechanisms.Particle formation is most intense in the impingementand the reactantconsumption in each precipitation mechanism depends on the mixing intensity.Different particle formation statesand their characteristics on the PSD in the early stage arethenidentified.Comparisonwith an ideal reactor showsthat the distribution can be controlled by altering the mixing environment.
