AEROSOL DISSEMINATION ASSESSMENT

Abstract

This report describes the work accomplished to develop, design and fabricate a complete chamber in the development of chemical devices, and applicable to a broad range of agents and dissemination methods. Aerosol description in terms of chemical composition and particle-size properties should provide useful data on disseminator performance and be relatable to biological effects. Sensor output from instruments in the system should be amenable to either direct display or data storage and processing or both whenever the latter techniques prove to be the most effective methods for obtaining real-time measurement of aerosol cloud properties. During this period, the selection of instruments and experimental methods has been further reduced based upon results of the information survey and a laboratory test program. The reasons for selecting either specific instrumentation or techniques or both are cited. Similarly, the basis for rejection is indicated for certain methods which do not appear applicable to the present system.
