Figures & data

Figure 1. Wet and dry size distributions at idle without an after treatment system, oil 1. The nano-SMPS measurements are shown with large markers and the long-SMPS measurements are shown with smaller markers. Thin vertical lines show the variation of the measured distributions (min-max).

Figure 2. Left: Dry ion concentrations with (neutralized) and without (ion) neutralizer at idling load condition for two polarities (+, –), oil 1. The vertical lines show variation of the measured distributions. Dashed lines show the lognormal fits for the data. Dilution-corrected data. Right: Calculated charging probability values for the measured diameters (open symbols). The solid lines show the best Boltzmann equilibrium charging fits for the data (FBneg,FBpos). The fitted Boltzmann temperatures were 875 K and 745 K for negative and positive polarities, respectively. The dashed lines show average theoretical (Fuchs, Citation1963; Hoppel and Frick, Citation1986) charging probability values (fn) for the neutralizer, used in the calculation. The thin dashed lines represent variation caused by different ion parameters (Reischl et al., Citation1996).
