Abstract
The tree‐dimensional growth of a spherical coherent particle in an isotropic infinite matrix is considered in the frame of the stationary solution of the classical diffusion equation applying WAGNERS approximation in a varied manner and taking into account both the concentration dependence of the diffusion constant D and the influence of elastic energy.
From the obtained results qualitative conclusions are drawn on the stability of the precipitates during the OSTWALD‐ripening process in dependence on their size. The evaluations doubtlessly confirm the higher stability and the favoured growth of the larger precipitates.
