Abstract:There are several characteristics of silver agglomerates that are not incorporated in existing models for agglomerate dynamics. These characteristics include particle alignment in the electric field, necking between particles, polydispersity of the primary particles, and variable primary sphere size. Estimates of these features on the agglomerate dynamics were computed as perturbations to the Chan-Dahneke agglomerate model. The variable primary sphere size effect results in the largest change from the idealize… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
