다단 임팩터는 수십 나노미터에서 수십 마이크로미터 크기의 대기 에어로졸의 입경분포를 측정하는 장비로 사용되어 왔다. 최근에는 전기적 임팩터가 개발되어 기존 다단임팩터의 문제점인 운전이 번거롭고, 측정시간이 오래 걸리는 단점을 보완하였다. 전기적 임팩터는 실시간으로 에어로졸의 크기분포를 측정할 수 있으므로, 대기환경 모니터링, 디젤 자동차에서 배출되는 입자상 물질(PM, particulate matter)의 측정, 대기오염 방시시설을 구비한 공장, 발전소, 소각로 등의 PM 모니터링 시스템 등에 응용될 수 있다.(중략)

An electrical cascade impactor is a multistage impaction device to separate airborne particles into aerodynamic size classes using electrical method. We designed a real-time three-stage electrical low-pressure impactor, which is proper to nanometer sized environmental aerosols. Performance evaluation was carried out for stage 1 and 2. The monodisperse liquid dioctyl sebacate (DOS) particles were generated using condensation-evaporation followed by electrostatic classification using DMA (differential mobility analizer) for particles with diameters in the range of $0.04{\sim}0.8{\mu}m$. The evaluation of the electrical impactor is based on the use of two electrometers, one connected to the impaction plate of the impactor, and the other to the faraday cage as backup filter. The results showed that the experimental 50% cutoff diameters in the operation pressure were 0.53 and $0.12{\mu}m$ for stage 1 and stage 2. The effect of operation pressure on the cutoff diameter and the steepness of collection effcieicy curves is investigated.

Cascade impactors are widely used to collect size classified aerosol. A major disadvantage of this instrument is the required long sampling time. Electrical low pressure impactor has been developed to overcome this disadvantage and to achieve real-time measurements on the particle size distribution. The instrument consists primarily of a corona charger, low pressure cascade impactor and multi channel electrometer. We designed and evaluated the performance of a potable 3-stage low pressure impactor using an electrical method. For the calibration of the impactor, monodispersed particles were generated using evaporation-condensation method followed by electrostatic classification using a DMA(Differential Mobility Analyzer). The collection efficiency curves of the stages can be determined by analysing the fraction of particles collected by each stage.

With a diode corona charger, which is a component of ELPI(Electrical Low Pressure Impactor), aerosol particles are charged to make electrical detection possible before they are collected by the impactor. We designed and evaluated two cylindrical corona chargers, each of which had a central corona needle electrode. For the performance evaluation of each corona charger the polydisperse dioctyl sebacate(DOS) particles, with diameters of 0.1∼0.8 $\mu$m and NaCl particles, smaller than 0.1$\mu$m, were used. The particles were then led through an electrostatic classifier (TSI model 3081) to classify monodisperse aerosol with minimal size deviation. After evaluating the wall loss of the particles in the corona charger, we measured the product of penetration and number of charges, Pㆍn, to evaluate the corona charger efficiency at high positive voltages of 4, 5, 6 kV.
