Abstract
The photophoresis of a coarse solid spherical aerosol particle in a one-component gas of nonuniform temperature is examined with consideration of the inertial effects in the hydrodynamic equations and the temperature jump in the Knudsen layer. The problem is solved in the spherical coordinates r, Θ, and ϕ. The photophoresis of a homogeneous particle is considered first. Then the results are generalized to an inhomogeneous particle. A particle whose thermal conductivity χ i varies as a function of r is chosen as a model which describes a broad class of natural and artificially produced aerosol particles. It is shown that the error can be significant if the variable internal thermal conductivity χ i =χ i (r) of the particle is ignored and only the value of the thermal conductivity on its surface χ i (a) is considered, on the assumption that the particle is homogeneous. It is also shown that a particle with a variable internal thermal conductivity χ i =χ i (r) and a density of heat sources within it q i (r,Θ) can be regarded as a homogeneous particle with a thermal conductivity γχ i (a) and a heat-source density m(r)q i (r,Θ). Recurrence formulas for gand m(r) in the general case are presented. Analytical expressions for γ and m(r) are found for a model particle with pronounced inhomogeneity.
