A model of an exhaust plume was developed and programmed
on a digital computer. The purpose of the model was to predict the
concentration and size distribution of ice particles produced from
automobile exhaust during arctic conditions. The model accounted
for the nucleation, growth, and freezing of the condensed water...
A high volume sampling system, employing Nuclepore filters and
designed for sampling particulate in the plumes from industrial
sources using a light aircraft, is described. The effluent of kraft
paper mills was sampled using this system and then analyzed by
electron microscopy.
Size distributions of particles were obtained at several...
