Abstract
Nanometer size particulate matter (PM) has harmful effects on human health. PM characteristics such as size and component emission from flame were required to develop reduction technologies for combustion origin PM. In this study, number concentration and characteristics of PM emission from quenched flame of benzene fuel were measured by a SMPS (Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer) and a combustion type PM analyzer (MEXA-1370PM). In addition, oxidation temperature of PM and its density were also measured by a TGA (Thermo Gravimetric Analyzer) and a Hydrometer. From these results, it was confirmed that PM emitted from quenched flame was more aggregation particle with SOF high mass concentration.
