Changes in Aerosol Particle Size and Number by Coagulation: A Review
نویسنده
چکیده
The delivery and distribution of very small particles throughout rooms and enclosures has become an important component of military and security operations in the urban environment. However, the effectiveness of an RNP deployment will be significantly affected by entity-entity collisions and the evolution of the particle size distribution. It is essential therefore to understand the mechanisms and rates of coagulation processes occurring in a decaying turbulent field. Following Friedlander (2000), the collision rate between particles of types i and j can be written as

Aerosol solvent extraction system (ASES) was used to prepare micro-particle of acetaminophen by supercritical carbon dioxide as an anti-solvent. Experiment was carried out at various temperatures, pressures, solvents and investigated the effects of these parameters on particle size, size distribution and morphology by SEM and laser diffraction particle size analyzer. It seems that the choice of...
متن کاملSimulation of Aerosol Dynamics: A Comparative Review of Algorithms Used in Air Quality Models
A comparative review of algorithms currently used in air quality models to simulate aerosol dynamics is presented. This review addresses coagulation, condensational growth, nucleation, and gas rparticle mass transfer. Two major approaches are used in air quality models to represent the particle size ( ) distribution: 1 the sectional approach in which the size distribution is discretized into se...
