Chebyshev Polynomial Approximation in the OPAQUE Program,

Abstract

The use of expansions in Chebyshev polynomials is investigated for determining the size distribution function of aerosol particles. Three different models of size distribution in aerosols, Junge's, a unimodel lognormal model, and the haze L model are considered in this context, and the advantages of the techniques are indicated.
