Abstract
The basic thermodynamical processes leading to the formation of droplets in the central part of the Nolan-Pollak counter are analyzed in some detail. The comparison of the UMR-Absolute Aitken Nuclei counter with Nolan-Pollak, General Electric and Gardner counters showed consistently higher counts of the UMR-AAN counter. The mean deviations varied between 20% and 50% depending on the type of the counter, nuclei concentration and nature. Several observations are made on ultrafine particle counting. © 1981.
