Structure analysis and size distribution of particulate matter from candles and kerosene combustion in burning chamber

摘要: Burning of candles generates particulate matter fine dimensions that produces poor indoor air quality, so it may cause harmful impact on human health. In this study solid aerosol particles burning different composition and kerosene combustion were collected in a closed laboratory system. Present work describes collection for structure analysis the relationship between source size distribution matter. The formation mechanism their tendency to agglomerate also are described. Particles obtained from have normal distribution. Whereas, generated stearin shifted towards finer particle range. If an additive paraffin candle is used, observed range particles. A form agglomerates short time case combustion, while such not observed. Aitken accumulation mode
