Nonideal collection characteristics of single stage and cascade impactors.

Experimental studies of single stage and cascade impactors showed that bounce was severe for dry particles on dry solid surfaces. Oil drops on dry surfaces or dry particles on oil coated surfaces were collected as predicted by theory. While glass fiber media collection surfaces reduced particle bounce, the impactor collection efficiency characteristics were changed.

Precision aerosol divider.

A precision aerosol divider with a 17 to 1 flow split has been designed and tested. The divider, primarily a mass monitor calibration device, collects 94.4% of the aerosol on a filter to serve as a standard and delivers 5.6% of the aerosol to the mass monitor to be calibrated.
