| Abstract: | A continuous flow diffusion cloud chamber has been used to study the growth of water droplets on NaCl aerosols of known size. Settling distances of droplets in the chamber have been recorded and compared to the theoretical ones generated on a computer. Using the droplet growth theory of Fukuta and Walter and a thermal accommodation coefficient of 1.0, the condensation coefficient was found to be 0.01. |
