Growth of a Population of Cloud Droplets UMD增长的人口云滴 UMD.pptVIP

Ventilation effects - When a drop is large enough to fall through the air with a significant speed, the vapor field becomes distorted from the spherical symmetry used in our model. These effects are negligibly small for cloud droplets, although they can become more significant for precipitation. Problems - cont. Nonstationary growth - The vapor and temperature fields are not steady because the surface of the droplet is expanding or contracting. However, calculations show that molecular diffusion quickly establishes a field around the droplet that corresponds to the steady state solution. Unst
