| Abstract |
A paper from the Aerosol Society Conference held in Bournemouth, United Kingdom, 22-24 March 1988. Some experimental size-selection curves for relatively coarse filters are presented and differences in general shape are related to simple theory. Size-selectivity has a Gaussian form if the process by which the filter acts is pure interception or gravitational desposition, while a much sharper curve is associated with inertial impaction. |
