Abstract

A Monte Carlo (MC) method using bookkeeping strategy for population balance modeling of particulate processes has been designed in this article. With this method the evaluation of coagulation time step can be done precisely. In an effort to achieve the best computational efficiency, the MC program is implemented on a many-core graphic processing unit (GPU) after being fully parallelized. Useful rules for optimizing the MC code are also suggested. The computational accuracy of the MC scheme is then verified by comparing with a deterministic sectional-method. Eventually the computational efficiency of the MC method is investigated.
