Abstract: In this note, we examine a shortcut for calculating the overall collision efficiency of a droplet spectrum, known as the ?median volume diameter? (mvd) approximation. By calculating the overall collision efficiency of a ...

Abstract: The work of Langmuir and Blodgett is widely referenced among researchers in the field of ice accretion who are interested in the impingement characteristics of cloud and spray droplets on circular cylinders. In this paper ...
