Updates in the simulator:
• Improved submodel of the background aerosol sink.
• Dry deposition according to the Churchill-Bernstein approximation.
• Minor technical improvements.
Both the exe-file and the Pascal source (Delphi console application) will be available for everybody in September.

First condensing substance: 0.55 nm, 2 g cm-3, effective dipole polarizability 0.149 nm3, plain Knudsen growth rate 2 nm/h, critical size and extra temperature of quantum rebound 2.5 nm and 600 K.
Second condensing substance: 0.8 nm, plain Knudsen growth rate 4 nm/h, nano-Köhler threshold 3 nm and power 2.
Background aerosol: 200 nm and 1000 cm-3. Forest: wind 1 m s-1, air residence 200 s, needle diameter 0.9 mm, total length in a unit volume 200 m-2.
Mixed nucleation: 75% neutral + 25% negative
The calculations were made with 3600 time steps and 2666 size sectionsup to diameter of 10.7 nm.
Four runs required for generating the example data. The total computing time was 41 s when adapted to a 1 GHz Pentium processor.

{Two alternative methods can be used (dont use both simultaneously!): 1. In case of the method of effective polarizability the actual value of aa shold be presented and yua = yub = 0. Polarizability aa in angstrom^3 is often estimated as equal to the number of atoms in a cluster or as equal to r^3 for large particles. Polarizability of a molecule of sulphuric acid is extra high: about 149 angstrom^3. 2. In case of the method by Nadykto and Yu the parameter aa must be zero, yua = sqr(f1 - 1) / (f2 - 1) and yub = ln((f1 - 1) / (f2 - 1)), where f1 is Nadykto-Yu dipole enhanchement factor for d = 1 nm and f2 is Nadykto-Yu dipole enhanchement factor for d = 2 nm. Nadykto and Yu expected f1 = 4.35 and f2 = 1.8 for sulphuric acid at temperature 298 K, in this case yua = 14 and yub = 1.43}
