الوصف: The condensational growth of spherical water microdroplets is studied in a laboratory setup and with a mathematical model. In the experiment, droplet clusters are kept in a freely levitated state within an upward-oriented flow of water vapor. In the presence of an electrostatic field of 1.5 * 10^5 V / m, droplet growth is accelerated by factors 1.5 to 2.0 as compared to conditions without any external electric field. Presumably water molecules in the ambient air are accelerated through the presence of the electric field. A kinetic model to predict the acceleration of condensational growth confirms this hypothesis to be feasible. The droplets themselves are polarized so that the deposition of steam molecules is facilitated in the electric field. The simplifications and limitations of the model are discussed.
