Popis: | A preliminary investigation has been carried out of the effect of London-van der Waals, viscous and electrostatic forces on the collision efficiency with Brownian coagulation of particles. The authors' conclusions suggest that for highly charged aerosols the electrostatic effect is the dominant one. On the other hand, for aerosol particles which have up to about ten unit charges, they note that van der Waals forces, electrostatic and viscous forces interact in a complex fashion which significantly alters the conventional rate of coagulation predicted by classical theory. |
