A soot model based on the kinetics of the formation of particles of carbon black, starting from radical nuclei to particle nuclei, is formulated and implemented to a 3 dimensional KIVA code. Model is capable of predicting total in-cylinder soot concentration and particle size distribution. Empirical parameters were tuned for the total soot emission of a single cylinder DI diesel engine. Model predicted results are quite consistent with reported experimental observations.
