Abstract:The d r o~ radius isAnalysis of droplet nucleation upon A1 0 2 3 nuclei in typical SRM exhaust clouds is presented. The free energy released in the phase transition is evaluated as a function of HC1 molefraction and nucleating particle radius for the conditions found in the exhaust cloud from a Titan I11 launch 90 seconds after ignition. The surface thus derived is saddle shaped with a unique equilibrium at the saddle point, and a narrow and sharply defined droplet growth region. For this enviro2ent, specified… Show more
