說明書
Generating the aerosol, smoke or vapour sample may comprise direct evaporation or vaporisation of target material from a target by Joule heating or diathermy.
Generating the aerosol, smoke or vapour sample may comprise directing ultrasonic energy into a target.
The aerosol, smoke or vapour sample may comprise uncharged aqueous droplets optionally comprising cellular material.
At least 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90% or 95% of the mass or matter generated which forms the aerosol, smoke or vapour sample may be in the form of droplets.
The Sauter mean diameter (“SMD”, d32) of the aerosol, smoke or vapour sample may be in a range selected from the group consisting of: (i) ≤ or ≥5 μm; (ii) 5-10 μm; (iii) 10-15 μm; (iv) 15-20 μm; (v) 20-25 μm; and (vi) ≤ or ≥25 μm.
The aerosol, smoke or vapour sample may traverse a flow region with a Reynolds number (Re) in a range selected from the group consisting of: (i) ≤ or ≥2000; (ii) 2000-2500; (iii) 2500-3000; (iv) 3000-3500; (v) 3500-4000; and (vi) ≤ or ≥4000.
Substantially at the point of generating the aerosol, smoke or vapour sample, the aerosol, smoke or vapour sample may comprise droplets having a Weber number (We) in a range selected from the group consisting of: (i) ≤ or ≥50; (ii) 50-100; (iii) 100-150; (iv) 150-200; (v) 200-250; (vi) 250-300; (vii) 300-350; (viii) 350-400; (ix) 400-450; (x) 450-500; (xi) 500-550; (xii) 550-600; (xiii) 600-650; (xiv) 650-700; (xv) 700-750; (xvi) 750-800; (xvii) 800-850; (xviii) 850-900; (xix) 900-950; (xx) 950-1000; and (xxi) ≤ or ≥1000.
