To obtain the variation of small values of growth parameter for spherical growth as a function of the dimensionless particle radius (particle radius over critical radius for nucleation), for different values of dimensionless supersaturation. The results produced by this program can be compared with those casted by an approximate analytical solution (MAP_KINETIC_ZENER_CAPI and MAP_KINETIC_ZENER_CAPI1).
The program simultaneously solves the diffusion equation for a sphere, the mass balance equation at the sphere interface, and a capillarity correction term, when these are expressed in the form of finite differences.
