Flow rate deviations were relatively small (within a few percent), while the sizing accuracy was found to be within 10% compared to polystyrene latex (PSL) reference particles. The unit-to-unit variability in terms of the particle number size distribution during this study was within 10% to 20% for particles in the range of 0.9 up to 3 μm, which is acceptable for atmospheric measurements. For particles smaller than that, the variability increased up to 60 %, probably caused by differences in the counting efficiencies of
individual units. Number size distribution data for particles smaller than 0.9 μm in aerodynamic diameter should only be used with caution. For particles larger than 3 μm, the unit-tounit variability increased as well. A possible reason is an insufficient sizing accuracy in combination with a steeply sloping particle number size distribution and the increasing uncertainty due to decreasing counting. Particularly this uncertainty of the particle number size distribution must be considered if higher moments of the size distribution such as the particle volume or mass are calculated, which require the
conversion of the aerodynamic diameter measured to a volume equivalent diameter. In order to perform a quantitative quality assurance, a traceable reference method for the particle number concentration in the size range 0.5–3 μm is needed.Pracoviště Ústav chemických procesů Kontakt Eva Jirsová, jirsova@icpf.cas.cz, Tel.: 220 390 227 Rok sběru 2017
