โฆ Synopsis
The purpose of this paper is to analyse transient and steady-state polycondensation in a continuous, stirred-tank reactor as an example of large, complex kinetic systems. The approach used is to effect a partial analytical solution of the exact rate equations supplemented by a numerical solution by digital computer. By dimensional analysis a single dimensionless group is obtained, which is related to the polymer yields and molecular weight distribution for both transient and steady-state operation of an isothermal reactor with constant feed composition.

## Abstract The basic features of aerosol behavior in the CSTR are examined. Solutions are obtained for the steady state aerosol size distribution during simultaneous coagulation, particle growth by vapor condensation and new particle formation by nucleation. Explicit distributions are shown for th
