Abstract

A modified kinetic equation that takes into account distributions of droplets over sizes and temperatures has been presented. The problem has been formulated and a mathematical model has been developed for condensation relaxation with regard to droplet temperature distribution. The results of numerical solution of the formulated problem have been presented for two vapor-gas mixtures. Comparative analysis of the data obtained with and without allowance for the droplet temperature distribution has made it possible to determine the reliability of previous results.
