Tracking water vapor homogeneous nucleation and droplet growth with spectroscopy and holography in a free expansion cloud chamber
Cole R. Sagan, Gwenore F. Pokrifka, Samuel M. Koblensky +5
We use a newly commissioned rapid expansion aerosol chamber (REACh) facility to study the homogeneous nucleation of water vapor to form liquid droplets. We perform high-speed measu…
Droplet Nucleation In a Rapid Expansion Aerosol Chamber
Martin A Erinin, Cole R. Sagan, Ilian Ahmed +4
We present a new experimental facility to investigate the nucleation and growth of liquid droplets and ice particles under controlled conditions and characterize processes relevant…
Buoyancy-Driven Entrainment in Dry Thermals
Brett McKim, Nadir Jeevanjee, Daniel Lecoanet
\citet{turner1957} proposed that dry thermals entrain because of buoyancy (via a constraint which requires an increase in the radius ). This however, runs counter to the scaling…
Entrainment in Resolved, Dry Thermals
Daniel Lecoanet, Nadir Jeevanjee
Entrainment in cumulus convection remains ill-understood and difficult to quantify. For instance, entrainment is widely believed to be a fundamentally turbulent process, even thoug…
