Characterisation of Mist Generation through Cloud Chamber Technology
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper develops understanding and appropriate techniques for characterising mist generation from super-saturated liquid-air systems. Whilst the technology for this technique originates from Wilson (1897), to date mainly a qualitative understanding of the relationship between mist characteristics and initial control conditions exists. Here, an improved design of cloud chamber, which facilitates accurate control, is described, and temporal measurement techniques for thermodynamic control parameters are proposed and appraised. Mist characteristics are quantified using transient laserdiffraction measurements. Expansion is described by a polytropic thermodynamic process with appropriate coefficients, and the influence on mist generation of primary control parameters expansion rate, expansion ratio and initial temperature are quantified and analysed. Applications include fundamental studies of two-phase combustion, quenching explosions by ultra-fine water mists and well as the traditional meteorological interest.

Mixing of air containing small water droplets is investigated in the laboratory model to elucidate smallest scales of air entrainment and mixing in real clouds. Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) is applied to evaluate turbulent characteristics of the flow field generated in the cloud chamber by buoyancy of the introduced mist. It permits to investigate dynamics of the process for scales from 0.0...

Surface acoustic wave nebulisation (SAWN) mass spectrometry (MS) is a method to generate gaseous ions compatible with direct MS of minute samples at femtomole sensitivity. To perform SAWN, acoustic waves are propagated through a LiNbO3 sampling chip, and are conducted to the liquid sample, which ultimately leads to the generation of a fine mist containing droplets of nanometre to micrometre dia...
