A probabilistic and statistical model of changes in the particle size distribution of the dispersed phase of low‐concentrated suspensions has been developed. The applicability of the method is theoretically substantiated. It is demonstrated that changes in the particle size distribution, in particular in the field of gravity, can be described by the Fokker‐Planck‐Kolmogorov equation.
