Zusammenfassung |
We present a condensed-mass advection based model (MADVEC) designed to
simulate the condensation/evaporation of liquid polar stratospheric cloud
(PSC) particles. A (Eulerian-in-radius) discretization scheme is used, making
the model suitable for use in global or mesoscale chemistry and transport models (CTMs). The mass advection equations are solved using an adaption of
the weighted average flux (WAF) scheme. We validate the numerical scheme using an analytical solution for multicomponent aerosols. The physics of the
model are tested using a test case designed by Meilinger et al. (1995). The results
from this test corroborate the composition gradients across the size distribution under rapid cooling conditions that were reported in earlier
studies. |
