Abstract
Graphical tools are developed that provide convenient estimation of the size distribution of particles penetrating venturi scrubbers, based on the well-established theoretical formulations of Calvert (1970) and Yung et al. (1978). The graphical solutions, produced through functional analysis and numerical methods, deliver the accuracy of the original theoretical models under the specified venturi design and operating conditions, subject to the assumption of lognormal input particle size distribution. While Part I describes estimation of the overall particle abatement efficiency, the work in this article allows estimation of the size distribution of emitted particles. The generated nomographs can therefore be used as part of a methodology for compiling size-specific particulate matter emission inventories.
