Diffusional losses of monodisperse polysterene spheres and doublets from laminar aerosol flows and stagnant aerosols in cylindrical tubes were measured. The losses of spheres were used to determine their diameter (range 69-120 mm) and the volume equivalent diameter of their doublets. The losses of the doublets were used to determine their dynamic shape factor which for randomly oriented doublets was established to be 1.127 ± 0.085 for Knudsen numbers between 1.1 and 2.0. | Diffusional losses of monodisperse polystyrene spheres and doublets from laminar aerosol flows and stagnant aerosols in cylindrical tubes were measured.
