Abstract
To obtain the solution to the time-dependent particle size distribution of an aerosol undergoing gravitational coagulation, the moment method was used which converts the non linear integro-differential equation to a set of ordinary differential equations. A semi-numerical solution was obtained using this method. Subsequently, an analytic solution was given by approximating the collision kernel into a form suitable for the analysis. The results show that during gravitational coagulation, the geometric standard deviation increases and the geometric mean radius decreases as time increases.
