Abstract
The deposition velocity of particles to a model surface has been deter mined experimentally in a wind tunnel by producing an aerosol consisti ng of monodisperse spheres containing a fluorescent substance. Simulta neously to the deposition a diluted sample of the aerosol is produced on a Nuclepore filter. By counting the particles on the deposition sur face and the filter the deposition velocity can easily be determined.
