Michael D. Wheeler

Understanding the nature of aerosols is vital to designing better nebulizers for chemical analysis and drug delivery, and to investigating fuel mixing in automotive and aerospace applications. Researchers now have a technique at their disposal that uses laser light to capture images of an aerosol field. In the past, mechanical techniques such as cascade impaction and mechanical patternation dominated aerosol diagnostics, but these approaches are intrusive. Laser-based alternatives like phase-Doppler particle analysis probe only a single point in the aerosol, so users must take many...Read full article
