Abstract

The Smoluchowsky's type equation for the particle coagulation in the foam formed by metastable films is proposed. The relations evaluating the mean particle size and foam lifetime are obtained. The foam space border phenomena are analyzed. Within the framework of the foam destruction model suggested the temporal dependences for the mean bubble size estimating in the foam bulk and its boundary have been obtained.
