Many industrial crystallizers incorporate some classifying devices. This paper deals with the steady state behavior of such systems. A method is described by which the particle size distribution can be calculated for any classifier, provided the crystallizer itself can be considered as a mixed vessel. The method is based on the use of residence time distribution and the escape probability or intensity function introduced by Shinnar and Naor. The effect of classification on crystallizer performance is discussed with the help of some illustrative examples.
