Abstract

Abstract The driver section of a shock tube was used to determine the measurable onset of condensation in the supersaturated state of water of different purity levels, benzene, carbon tetrachloride and freon-11, all present at small mole fraction in argon. It was found that the purity of the water does not affect the critical supersaturation and that benzene and carbon tetrachloride—in contrast to freon-11 —condense approximately as predicted by the classical theory of nucleation and appropriate growth laws.
