Detection near 1-nm with a laminar-flow, water-based condensation particle counter
ARTICLE HISTORY Received 14 September 2016 Accepted 7 November 2016 ABSTRACT Presented is a laminar-flow, water-based condensation particle counter capable of particle detection near 1 nm. This instrument employs a three-stage, laminar-flow growth tube with a “moderator” stage that reduces the temperature and water content of the output flow without reducing the peak supersaturation, and makes ...
متن کاملModification of Laminar Flow Ultrafine Condensation Particle Counters for the Enhanced Detection of 1 nm Condensation Nuclei
This paper describes simple modifications to thermally diffusive laminar flow ultrafine condensation particle counters (UCPCs) that allow detection of ∼1 nm condensation nuclei with much higher efficiencies than have been previously reported. These nondestructive modifications were applied to a commercial butanolbased UCPC (TSI 3025A) and to a diethylene glycol-based UCPC (UMN DEG-UCPC). Size a...
متن کاملElectrical Mobility Spectrometer Using a Diethylene Glycol Condensation Particle Counter for Measurement of Aerosol Size Distributions Down to 1 nm
We report a new scanning mobility particle spectrometer (SMPS) for measuring number size distributions of particles down to ∼1 nm mobility diameter. This SMPS includes an aerosol charger, a TSI 3085 nano differential mobility analyzer (nanoDMA), an ultrafine condensation particle counter (UCPC) using diethylene glycol (DEG) as the working fluid, and a conventional butanol CPC (the “booster”) to...
متن کاملWater-based Condensation Particle Counters (WCPCs) - Design & Characterization Bibliography
Condensation particle counters (CPCs) have been used for decades as the most effective and reliable method to measure number concentration of ultrafine airborne particles. Setting up a measurement network with research-grade CPCs can be expensive. A compact water-based CPC (TSI model 3781 WCPC) designed for long-term monitoring is the newest addition to the CPC family. This WCPC features small ...
متن کاملModeling particle diffusion in laminar tube flow with spectral collocation
The spectral collocation method is a numerical approximation technique that seeks the solution of a differential equation using a finite series of infinitely differentiable basis functions. This inherently global technique enjoys an exponential rate of convergence and has proven to be extremely effective in computational fluid dynamics. Despite the initial complexity of understanding spectral c...
