description The differentially weighted operator-splitting Monte Carlo (DWOSMC) method is further developed to describe the droplet aerosol dynamic behaviors, including coagulation, deposition, condensation, and evaporation processes. It is first proposed that the droplet aerosols will experience firstly condensation and then evaporation, and this phenomenon is first implemented into the Monte Carlo method and sectional method with considering coagulation, deposition, and condensation/evaporation processes in both single-component and two-component aerosol particle systems. It is found that the calculated results of the DWOSMC method agree well with both the analytical solutions and the sectional method. The further developed DWOSMC method can predict the variation of particle number density, total particle volume, mean particle diameter, particle size distributions, and the component-related particle volume densities in both single component and two-component droplet aerosol systems considering coagulation, deposition, and condensation/evaporation processes.
