Abstract

Results on the Ostwald ripening process of aerosols by condensation/evaporation for continuum and kinetic (free molecule) growth laws are presented. It is shown that asymptotic limit distributions are approached which agree substantially with distributions derived from similarity theory. However, the limitations inherent in previous studies of this problem are noted. The dynamics of the approach to asymptotic limit distributions are also described.
