Theoretical study of the morphologically originated noise associated with the transmittance of a precipitation system

In this paper we present the results of a computational study that analyses the relationship between the noise associated with the optical transmittance of a system of particles and the morphology of such particles. Computational algorithms have been developed in order to represent the different morphologies within a wide range of sizes. By using this methodology, it has been possible to study the morphology of particles in a virtual system, therefore avoiding the distortions that would inevitably be present in a real system. As a consequence of this study, a classification of the morphologies observed has been made according to the amount of noise they would add to the transmittance of a system of particles. The theoretical results obtained are in good agreement with the available experimental data obtained in real systems.
