Response to 'Comment on 'Comparison between solutions of the generaldynamic equation and the kinetic equation for nucleation and dropletgrowth' ' [J. Chem. Phys. 132, 047101 (2010)]

摘要

In his comment,1 Shneidman presents analytical expres-sions for the droplet size distribution function, the thicknessof the front, and the location rn of the stationary source. Hiscomparison of the analytical and our numerical distributionfunction shows an excellent agreement. Here, we extend thiscomparison and also compare Shneidman's other expressionsto our numerical results from Ref. 2. In the following analy-sis, we adopt Shneidman's notation, where R is the dropletradius and r-RIR* is the dimensionless radius.
