Abstract
Abstract The effects of intermolecular forces on the collection efficiency of submicron aerosol particles are studied. It is assumed that the intermolecular forces provide a certain region as an absorbent surface in the vicinity of the drop. Numerical results have been obtained for the cases of a water drop collecting AgCl aerosols and a water drop collecting submicron cloud droplets. It is found that the collection efficiency depends mainly on the diffusion process. Our calculations agree reasonably well with recent experimental results of Kerker for AgCl aerosols for the case of small drop.
