Model for the Inertial Focusing of Particles Using an Atmospheric Aerodynamic Lens

상압 공기역학적 렌즈의 입자 관성집속 모델

  • Published : 2001.03.01

Abstract

Aerodynamic lenses are widely used in generating particle beams of high density and small diameter, but analytical or modeling studies are limited only in the free molecular regime. In this study, it is shown that generating particle beam is also possible in atmospheric pressure range, and the mechanism of generating particle beam using an orifice is analysed into three different parts : fluid dynamic contraction, diffusional defocusing, and inertial focusing. In laminar flow conditions, the diffusional defocusing effect can be neglected, and the effects of inertial focusing can be expressed in terms of the orifice size and Stokes number. Numerical experiments are done for two different orifices, d/D=1/5 and 1/10 and particle diameter d(sub)p=1-10 ㎛. The results for two different orifices can be made into a single curve when a modified Stokes number is used. The inertial focusing effect diminishes when the modified Stokes number becomes smaller than 10(sup)-2.
