Brownian coagulation of aerosol particles can take place in both laminar and turbulent flows. Thus, the simultaneous Brownian and shear coagulation will always occur in practical applications. This study pre- sents an analytical solution to describe the size evolution of polydisperse particles undergoing simulta- neous Brownian and shear coagulation. The analytical solution is derived using the log-normal method of moments (LNMOM) with some approximations. Then, the analytical solution is validated by comparing with previous analytical solutions derived for limiting cases. The results show that the present analytical solution is consistent with previous analytical solutions for these limiting cases. Further, the time trajec- tories of the total particle number concentration, the geometric standard deviation and the geometric number mean particle volume predicted by the present analytical solution are compared with those of a numerical LNMOM model. The results show that the present analytical solution gives good predictions of the total particle number concentration but less accurate predictions of the geometric standard devi- ation and the geometric number mean particle volume. A dimensionless analysis shows that the coagu- lation rate ratio and the initial polydispersity are two important factors for characterizing the size evolution of simultaneous Brownian and shear coagulation.(C) 2020 The Society of Powder Technology Japan.
