| Abstract: | A simplified aerosol coagulation model has been developed, to determine the mutual coagulation of many discrete size classes. The model has been applied to computation of the growth of light scattering particles from a small monodisperse aerosol, and prediction of aerosol size and concentration downwind of sources. These computations are in good agreement with field observations. This model is sufficiently simplified to allow programming In contemporary desk calculators and is an extremely practical tool for application of aerosol technology to air pollution problems. |
