Abstract
A systematic theoretical and experimental investigation is presented o f the effects of the particle size, velocity and number concentration on the correlation function as well as the effect of aperture angle of the observation optics. The experiments were carried out on particles in the size range of 300-700 nm and at particle velocities between 0. 3 and 1.2 ms-1. Recommendations are given for favourable experimental conditions to size monodisperse flowing aerosols by correlation spectr oscopy.
