Sp. Bakanov, THE DYNAMICS OF CONDENSATION NUCLEI IN A THERMAL-DIFFUSION CHAMBER, Journal of applied mathematics and mechanics, 61(6), 1997, pp. 1021-1023
The evolution of a spherical liquid drop formed by homogeneous nucleat
ion inside a thermal diffusion chamber is investigated. The equation o
f motion of the drop in non-uniform temperature fields and the composi
tion of the gaseous mixture are obtained, taking into account the phas
e transition at the drop-gas interface as well as gravitation. (C) 199
