Eulerian and modified Lagrangian approaches to multi-dimensional condensation and coagulation

by Xiang-Yu Li, A. Brandenburg, N. E. L. Haugen, and G. Svensson

  • Eulerian Smoluchowski and Lagrangian superdroplet approaches to cloud droplet growth are compared
  • The Lagrangian schemes are found to be generally more accurate and computationally cheaper
  • Size spectra and mean radii agree well for both approaches in two-dimensional turbulence
