Adaptive method of lines for multi-component aerosol condensational growth and CCN activation [PDF]
The process of formation of cloud droplets on an ensemble of aerosol particles is modelled by numerous investigators using the method of lines (MOL). The method involves discretisation of the aerosol size spectrum into bins whose positions evolve with ...

Drift Potential Characteristics of a Flat Fan Nozzle: A Numerical and Experimental Study
This study explores the drift potential characteristics of a flat fan nozzle. The atomization and drift characteristics of fan-shaped pressure nozzles were studied at a spraying height of 0.6 m and a lateral wind speed of 0–6 m/s through a combination of

Impact of high- and low-vorticity turbulence on cloud–environment mixing and cloud microphysics processes [PDF]
Turbulent mixing of dry air affects the evolution of the cloud droplet size spectrum via various mechanisms. In a turbulent cloud, high- and low-vorticity regions coexist, and inertial clustering of cloud droplets can occur in low-vorticity regions.

Toward an Understanding of the Indirect Climatic Effect of Aerosols [PDF]
This thesis is motivated by the need to improve our understanding of the aerosol indirect effect. The activation of aerosol into cloud droplets has been extensively studied, using a comprehensive numerical cloud droplet activation model. Using this model,

Analysis of Volume Distribution and Evaluation of the Spraying Spectrum in Terms of Spraying Quality
Assessment of the quality of the operation of agricultural nozzles on the basis of transverse volume distribution and spatial methods of analysis for stream spraying spectra is insufficient, and positive result do not guarantee that the intended and ...

Spectrum of spray droplets with different nozzles and adjuvants
Successful application of agrochemicals depends on factors such as the droplet size, nozzle type and solution composition. In this context, the objective of this study was to evaluate the spectrum of spray droplets with different spray nozzles by means of direct measurement.

ABSTRACT: In this research, the Volumetric Median Diameters (VMDs), Relative Span (RS), percentage of droplets with a diameter smaller than 100 µm (V100), and percentage ofdrift (% drift) of four droplet classes (Fine, Medium, Coarse, and Very Coarse) were analyzedin two spray volumes (77 L.ha-1and 144 L.ha-1) employinga tank-mix of atrazine and ...

Computational Modeling Studies of Fundamental Aerosol-Cloud Interactions [PDF]
Basic questions regarding the interaction between changes in human activity and the atmosphere remain unanswered. Among these, the link between aerosol particles and cloud formation and development, especially in an altered climate, is a large point of ...
