Homogeneous nucleation theory was examined by using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations in which nucleation process from vapor molecules of Lennard-Jones type was investigated. MD simulations were carried out using 5,000 molecules under large supersaturation ratio (approximately 8.5) and compared the size distributions of the clusters obtained by the MD simulations with the theoretical models. As a result, it was found that a semi-phenomenological model, which modifies the classical nucleation theory, achieves excellent agreements with MD simulations.
