In this article, a model of the combustion of metal particles with equilibrium condensation in the gas phase is proposed. It is shown that, in the chlorination of an iron particle, FeCl/sub 2/ condensation in the gas phase only occurs when it is present in the surrounding medium. For the case where there is no FeCl/sub 2/ condensation in the gas phase, the chlorination time of the iron particle and the rate of accumulation of condensed FeCl/sub 2/ at the particle surface are calculated as a function of the chlorine content in the surrounding medium. The conditions under which there is no accumulation of condensed FeCl/sub 2/ at the particle surface are determined. Depending on the chlorination conditions, the condensed FeCl/sub 2/ may accumulate or evaporate.
