FIGURE 11.7 Nucleation rates measured in supersaturated n-butanol vapor as a function of saturation ratio for various temperatures ranging from 225 to 265 K (Viisanen and Strey 1994). Different symbols indicate different carrier gases at 240 K. Predictions of classical nucleation theory are shown by the lines. (Reprinted with permission from Viisanen, Y., and Strey, R., V. M.
