Characterization of Aerosol Inlets and Ducts

Abstract

During the four-month transition period between Phase I and Phase II, we will complete Solidworks TM mechanical and ZemaxTM optical designs for inlet calibration devices for the additional three conductive tubing diameters commonly used in aerosol measurements. We will begin to design the inlet(s) to be installed on the SPEC Learjet research aircraft and work with Navy personnel to determine the best way to adapt the inlet calibration devices for use on the Navy Twin Otter. The diffuser inlet for the Learjet will be designed and engineering for FAA approval will be initiated. We will also begin to design the new 2D-S imaging probe and finalize the engineering parameters for ordering the custom I 28-photodiode array.
