Scaling of an Atmospheric Model to Simulate Turbulence and Cloud Microphysics in the Pi Chamber

Abstract The Pi Cloud Chamber offers a unique opportunity to study aerosol‐cloud microphysics interactions in a steady‐state, turbulent environment. In this work, an atmospheric large‐eddy simulation (LES) model with spectral bin microphysics is scaled down to simulate these interactions, allowing c...
