AEROSOL DISSEMINATION ASSESSMENT
Abstract
The program objectives are to develop, to design, and to fabricate a complete system for the assessment of aerosols dispersed in test chambers. The main activities reviewed are aerosol mass-decay analysis, chamber mixing and material-balance studies, electrostatic effects on chamber aerosols and their evaluation, bioeffectiveness of aerosols, sampling and subsequent data reduction methods required for the determination of aerosol parameters through the mass- decay procedure. The design of an automated sequential filter sampling system is described, as well as initial phases in the development of a beta absorptiom- impactor instrument. Experiments in the above area were conducted both in a large(213 cu m) test chamber with explosive dissemination of agent and simulant materials, and in small laboratory chambers with pneumatic aerosol injection.
