Abstract:

We developed a method for the study of heterogeneous nucleation in a laminar flow chamber, allowing to determine the relationship between the main parameters of the process: the critical size of the seed particles, supersaturation and temperature. The workability of this method is demonstrated for the heterogeneous nucleation of sulfur vapor on nanoparticles of tungsten oxide.

Keywords:
