- Abstract
- The performance of the electrical aerosol analyzer (EAA) for aerosol number and volume concentration measurements has been evaluated using polydisperse aerosols of sucrose, NaC1, (NH4)2SO4, dioctyl phthalate, and H2SO4. Comparisons were made between the EAA and a General Electric condensation nuclei counter (CNC) for aerosol number concentration measurement and with a gravimetric analysis technique for aerosol volume or mass concentration measurement.
