Influence of size effects on condensation of vapor on small charged aerosol particles

eff E c α and the surface tension σ can also depend on the size of the particle. Moreover, transfer of vapor molecules to the particle surface generally depends on the particle size. The paper deals with the joint influence of above-mentioned effects on the density of the resulting flux of vapor molecules into the particle. Further we for simplicity do not consider the effect related to influence of the particle charge on the vapor concentration of polar molecules near the particle surface (Nadykto et al., 2003). Taking into account (Levdansky et al., 2006) the density of the resulting flux of vapor molecules into the particle with the elementary charge in the general case when the condensation coefficient q c α and the surface tension σ depend on the particle size can be written as
