Abstract
The ability of the Nolan-Pollak counter to function as a "total" particle counter was investigated. Comparison with the UMR Absolute Aitken Nuclei Counter operated at an expansion pressure ratio of 1.33 revealed that in mean, the N-P counter measurements (at an expansion pressure ratio of 1.21) were 30% less. This correction, however, depends on particle nature, concentration and size distribution and assumes that particle losses in the central part of the UMRAAN counter are negligible. © 1982.
