Graduate Maxwell's diffusion equation for water droplet evaporation rate
I looked at the Seaver (1983). I wish I could understand it fully (or even partially). I forgot calculus it came easily and went just as easily (40 years ago). Seaver though is developing a formula for drops smaller than 2 microns and Seaver confirms any drop larger is Maxwellian (ie yields best...- zoofog

Graduate Maxwell's diffusion equation for water droplet evaporation rate
Thank you ever so much. It will take me time (as probably days) to digest and use the new search terms to learn what I can on my own before asking for more help. Thanks again. I was mistified why circumference and not surface area was in my equation.- zoofog

Graduate Maxwell's diffusion equation for water droplet evaporation rate
So I've observed the animal I am studying dry it's self (a survival mechanism called anhydrobiosis) to avoid freezing (laseration by ice crystals). Life forms given time produce a number of protectants in order to survive. Trehalose a sugar is produced to 2-4%. This will act as an antifreeze to...- zoofog
