Popis:	The factors affecting the volatilization of trichloroethylene from a shower spray were assessed and modeled as a function of the distribution of drop sizes. For the 10 L/min shower-water flow system, the measured drop sizes were smaller and initial velocities greater than those for the 5 L/min system. Log-probit plots indicate a bimodal distribution of drop sizes for each flow rate. Three models for internal mass transfer from drops were assessed to determine which best predicted shower emissions.
