Abstract
Several direct reading methods for aerosol counting and sizing have been suggested in the literature in recent years. This paper reports on an investigation of three proposed techniques—a piezoelectric crystal sensor, an acoustical sensor, and a hot-wire sensing element—and compares their relative merits with each other. It is concluded that the hot-wire anemometer appears to offer the most promise for further development, particularly because of its ability to discriminate between solid and liquid aerosols.Keywords
