Fig. 3.5
Trapping efficiency versus particle size. Shown are the experimental results of Ray et al.
(
1988
), the semi-empirical curves from Fuchs and Sutugin (
1971
) and from Dahnecke (
1983
),
and the present chapter. The
solid line
is the result of a numerical solution to the kinetic equation
(Williams and Loyalka

; Loyalka et al.

)
This spectrum possesses two remarkable features: it depends on (1) the radial
