Abstract

It is important to monitoring the fine particles (PM2.5) in atmosphere as it threatens the public health all over the world. But the existing concentration measuring devices have shortcomings in speed and range. A novel fine particle concentration measuring system based on the ultrasonic attenuation was designed in this paper, which could help to solve the problem. Firstly the mechanism of ultrasonic attenuation in dust cloud was studied to verify the relationship between the concentration and the ultrasonic attenuation. Then the novel concentration measuring system was designed. The micro ultrasonic transducer array was introduced into the system, so the system can be sensitive as well as small. Finally, experiment was conducted to check the performance of this measuring system, and the results show that it could realize measurement quickly.
