Abstract
We describe the computation of a numerical approximation to the self-preserving size distribution of an aerosol undergoing free-molecule coagulation, obtained by time integration of the coagulation rate equations. We show how the error in this and in other numerical approximations to this distribution may be gauged. With the aid of this error-estimation technique, it is shown that a simple transformation of the approximate solution obtained by Lai et al. (1972) generates a more accurate distribution than any other proposed hitherto.
