Thermodynamics Of Charge Enhanced Nucleation And Cloud Droplets Formation And Growth

In this study we considered thermodynamics of the atmosphere,under this We havernseen moist air humidity variables mean molecular weight of moist air and other quantitiesrnand we derived the virtual temperature Tvrt.We also considered surface tensionrnand nucleation of cloud droplets. we studied homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleationrnas well as droplet growth and derived the change in droplet radius rd.rnThe result shows that droplet radius grows as the square root of time and howrnthe droplet radius reduces in time through evaporation. In addition to this, wernconsidered thermodynamics of charge enhanced nucleation formation and growth,rnthe source of charge droplet which are,charge separation by the differential motion ofrndrops of different sizes, or the always-present electric current between ionosphere andrnthe Earths surface, which can charge up individual droplets at cloud boundaries. Thernresult shows increasing the charge Q also increases the amount of work done againstrnthe electrostatic potential.
