Abstract

The design of an instrument that sorts raindrops according to fall speed is described. The apparatus consists of two rotating disks, the upper one allowing rain to fall through a slit into collectors on the lower disk. Drops are collected in a manner allowing chemical concentrations and pH to be determined as a function of drop size. Laboratory and field tests validate the detailed design theory for conditions of low windspeed.
