On the Median Volume Diameter Approximation for Droplet Collision Efficiency
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
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 ...
A Computational Investigation of Water Droplet Trajectories
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
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 ...
On the Aerodynamics of Spheroidal Hailstone Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Drag, lift and torques for smooth oblate spheroids, of axis ratio from 0.50 to 0.79, were measured over a range of Reynolds number from 4?104 to 4?105 at various inclination angles of the models to the flow. The data show ...
