Pfloat, optional

Pressure in Pascals. Default is 101300 Pa.

inplacebool, optional

Whether to modify the current instance or return a new one. Default is True.

Returns

Aerosol2D

Instance with diffusion-corrected sizebin data.

Parameters:
  • D_tube (float)

  • L (float)

  • Q (float)

  • T (float)

  • P (float)
