In the analysis chamber 4, as described above, a high voltage of the positive electrode and a high voltage of the negative electrode are applied to the two opposing electrodes 5, 5 via the rotating electric field generator 6, and this application is applied to the adjacent electrodes one after another. Because the particles in the measurement gas are enveloped in clean gas and flow into the analysis chamber 4, when they flow in, they are polarized so that they attract each other to the electrodes formed on the positive and negative electrodes. However, in the next moment, the positive and negative sides of the electrode change to the adjacent electrode, so the polarized particle is pulled by the adjacent electrode and changes its angle, and then changes its angle again, and in this way the particle rotates and its polarized particle changes its angle. Sound waves are generated in response to rotational kinetic energy. At this time, the intensity of the generated sound waves is proportional to the diameter and length of the fibrous or cylindrical particles. Therefore, conversely, the diameter and length can be determined by measuring the intensity of the sound waves. Therefore, in the present invention,
By capturing this sound wave with a microphone 10 and analyzing its waveform with a waveform analyzer 12, it is possible to determine the diameter and length of the particle.
