The apparatus of the monodisperse metal fume generator was designed and the productions of lead fumes were studied systematically. To get the stable heating on the evaporation of metal, the high frequency induction furnace was used. The generated fumes were carried with nitrogen gas which was dried and filtered. Then, the lead fumes, having variable mean diameter with the narrow size distribution, could be generated with changing flow rate of the carrier gas and temperature of the furnace.
