Title of Thesis : FLUID AND PARTICLE DYNAMICS IN AN AEROSOL VIRTUAL IMPACTOR
Title of Thesis: FLUID AND PARTICLE DYNAMICS IN AN AEROSOL VIRTUAL IMPACTOR Marwan L. Charrouf, Master of Science, 2004 Thesis Directed by: Professor Richard V. Calabrese Department of Chemical Engineering The collection and characterization of chemical and biological aerosols is essential to many areas of particle research such as toxicological studies, pollutant sampling, and biohazard assess...
متن کاملThe Use of Index-Matched Beads in Optical Particle Counters
In this paper, we demonstrate the use of 2-pyridinemethanol (2P) aqueous solutions as a refractive index matching liquid. The high refractive index and low viscosity of 2P-water mixtures enables refractive index matching of beads that cannot be index matched with glycerol-water or sucrose-water solutions, such as silica beads that have the refractive index of bulk fused silica or of polymethylm...
متن کاملThe Conference on Optical Characterization of Atmospheric Aerosols Miniature, low-cost optical particle counters
A range of miniature, low-cost optical particle counters for characterizing atmospheric particles has been developed. They are intended for use with disposable balloon-borne radiosondes, dropsondes or in dense ground-based sensor networks. Versions exist that are suitable for determining the size distributions and number concentrations of cloud particles or atmospheric aerosols such as mineral ...

متن کاملEfficiency of light-scattering aerosol particle counters.
The counting efficiency as a function of particle size has been calculated for a particular forward scattering aerosol particle counter that uses white light illumination for spherical particles with indexes of refraction 1.33-0i, 1.40-0i, 1.50-0i, 1.592-0i, 1.50-0.05i, 1.50-0.1i, 1.50-0.5i, and 1.95-0.66i. The counting efficiency differs from 100% because of statistical effects: photoelectron ...
