Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of environmental monitoring and analysis, and particularly relates to a method for measuring the volume equivalent diameter and the effective density of aerosol particles.
Background
Aerosol particles have important effects on climate, environment and human health, which are largely dependent on the physicochemical properties of the particles. The accurate characterization of the physical and chemical properties of the particles, especially the particle size, density and chemical composition, is of great significance for understanding the aging process and the effect of the particles.
(1) Background of particle size research and State of the Art of measurement
For spherical particles, the diameter is the particle size of the particles. The diameter of the spherical particles can be measured by techniques such as particle size spectrometers. For non-spherical particles, volume equivalent diameter (D) is typically usedve) Denotes the size of the particles, i.e. the diameter of a sphere of equal volume to the particle. DveThe physical quantity which is used for representing the actual size of the particulate matters is an important variable for researching the atmospheric behavior of the particulate matters in the field of atmospheric science. However, there is currently no technique for accurately measuring D for non-spherical particlesve。
(2) Background of research and State of the Art of measurement of Density
Density (p)p) Is one of the most important physical properties of aerosol particles, determines the sedimentation transport properties of the particles in the actual atmosphere and in the human respiratory system, and affects the optical properties of the aerosol. Further, ρpOr the electromigration size (D) of the aerosolm) Conversion to aerodynamic diameter (D)a) And important parameters when converting aerosol number concentration distribution into mass concentration. Because the prior art cannot effectively measure the density (rho) of the particulate matterp) And the shape factor (χ) of the particles (shape factor is a factor for describing the shape of the particles: usually χ ═ 1, indicating that the particulate matter is spherical; the more χ is greater than 1, the more the shape deviates from a spherical shape), so the effective density (ρ) is generally usede) The properties of the particulate matter are characterized. RhoeThere are three definitions, where two define ρeThere is an inherent property that decreases with increasing particle size, but this downward trend cannot currently be accurately assessed and corrected. And p defined in the thirde(ρe=ρpχ) has a particle diameter not dependent on particle diameterThe changed characteristics are more reasonable to characterize the properties of the particles. However, no technique is currently available for measuring this ρ of particulate mattere。

b. Based on set DaAnd measured DvaUsing the following formula:
wherein, C (D)a) And C (D)ve) Respectively correspond to DaAnd DveThe cunningan correction factor; calculating to obtain the volume equivalent diameter D of the particlesve;
Then based on the measured DvaAnd calculated DveUsing the following formula:
where ρ ispIs the density of the particles, p0Has a unit density of 1.0g/cm3,χvIs a shape factor in the free molecular state; calculating to obtain rhop/χvI.e. the effective density ρ of the particlese(ρe=ρp/χv)。
