The effect of the initial salt concentration on the rate of crystallization in a thin layer of solution

Abstract

When simulating crystallization, it is necessary to take into account the temperature distribution on the solution interface, the place of emergence of the first crystalline center, as well as the rate of evaporation and crystallization. Depending on the specified parameters, three crystallization scenarios are implemented: 1) a sharp decrease in the crystallization rate J cr with time, 2) an increase in J cr with time, 3) an increase in J cr and reaching the maximum, and then a decrease in the crystallization rate.
