To obtain the variation of dimensionless supersaturation with Péclet number and the ratio of the needle tip radius and the critical radius for nucleation.
This program reads the value of Q, and a table with the variation of N1 and N2 with Péclet number from the input data file 'indat11.d' (see MAP_KINETIC_PARAMETER_R1), and writes the output in the file 'res1.d'.
The program obtains the variation of dimensionless supersaturation with Péclet number and the ratio of the needle tip radius and the critical radius for nucleation by simultaneously solving the diffusion equation expressed in parabolic coordinates and an equation to account for mass balance at the parabolic interface. The equations can be found in the references.
