“…Considerable work has been done evaluating sources of error in data acquired from cascade impactors (19,27) and the EAA (28). It is apparent that once these instruments are properly calibrated they have high reliability.…”

“…Recent reviews of available particle sizing techniques (10, 11) aided in the selection for this study of a cascade impactor for large droplets (12-14) (>0.4 µ ) and an electrical aerosol analyzer for droplets in the range 0.032-1.0 µ diameter (15)(16)(17). However, these systems are generally used at much lower particle number densities than those found in pneumatic nebulizer sprays (12,16,18,19). Instrument requirements led to the need for extremely high dilution of the aerosol 0003-2700/80/0352-0287$01.00/0 c 1980 American Chemical Society stream, without disturbing the particle size distribution.…”

“…Zinn et al [10] found that the particulate size increases with increasing heat radiation. Figure 2 demonstrates, for example, that in comparison with PU and PVC, wood produces unfavourable smoke densities at high levels of irradiance [9] if a specific light beam is used to determine the optical density.…”

“…The reduction of visibility depends primarily on the quantity of smoke produced by the burning materials [7][8][9][10][11], though other effects must be taken into account also. Wood, for example, reacts strongly to indirect environment-related factors.…”
