Abstract
A multistage virtual impactor has been designed and fabricated consisting of two separation stages yielding three particle size classes. Efficiency and loss curves have been experimentally determined at ambient conditions for each stage. The small physical size and ability to operate at low flow rates make the impactor very versatile. The uses for a multistage virtual impactor range from high pressure, high temperature applications to ambient personnel monitoring.
