Optical system for measuring size of particles suspended in air - maintains uniform intensity of illumination in measuring zone
An optical system for measuring the size of water droplets suspended in the atmosphere uses a source of light (S). The light passes through a condenser (C) and through the rectangular aperture of a diaphragm (11). The diaphragm (11) lies in the focal plane of a lens (12) which converts the rays from...

Zusammenfassung: | An optical system for measuring the size of water droplets suspended in the atmosphere uses a source of light (S). The light passes through a condenser (C) and through the rectangular aperture of a diaphragm (11). The diaphragm (11) lies in the focal plane of a lens (12) which converts the rays from the points (A) or (B) to a parallel beam which passes through the slit (17). The light passes through a second lens (14) which focuses it on the points (A') or (B'). The droplets of water in this zone refract the light through a lens (15) which directs it onto a pin point detector (16). The intensity of light on the detector (16) indicates the droplet size. The system gives a uniform intensity of illumination in the focal plane (13) so that the actual position of the particle does not effect the measurement.
Dispositif pour assurer un éclairement constant dans un volume donne et son application à la détermination du diamètre de particules sphériques. Ce dispositif comprend, après la source S sur l'axe du faisceau incident, un condenseur C et un premier diaphragme il placé dans le plan focal objet d'un premier objectif 12, un second diaphragme 17 placé contre ce premier objectif 12 et un second objectif 14 situé dans le plan focal image dudit premier objectif 12 et projetant dans la zone de mesure 13 l'image du premier diaphragme 11. Application à la détermination statistique du diamètre de particules sphériques opaques et transparentes. |
