A combinatorial approach for predicting the steady-state agglomerate or drop-size distribution in batch suspensions undergoing intense stirring is proposed. The model accounts for the fact that both coagulation and break-up could occur simultaneously owing to agitation. Overall, considering its simplicity and the fact that it lacks any adjustable parameters, the results of the model compare favourably with experiment.
