Abstract
An experimental study of the effect of ventilation on the rate of evaporation of millimeter sized water drops falling at terminal velocity in air has been carried out in a wind tunnel where drops were suspended freely in the tunnel air stream. To illustrate how the present data may be applied the authors computed the distance which is required for a water drop to travel from cloud base through a NACA Standard Atmosphere of various relative humidities, in order to reach the earth's surface with a given size. - from Authors
