Microphysical Characteristics and Environmental Isotope Effects of the Micro-Droplet Groups under the Action of Acoustic Waves

Acoustics can cause particles/droplets to agglomerate in the air medium, thereby accelerating gravity sedimentation. To assess the microphysical characteristics and environmental isotope effects of micro-droplet groups under the action of acoustic waves, an air chamber experimental platform was esta...
