摘要
A method to find particle effective density and the fractal dimension, based on simultaneous size distribution measurements with SMPS and ELPI, is introduced. A fitting procedure is used to find the particle density as a function of particle size and the fractal dimension. The method was tested by simulation and by experimental measurements of particles with varying morphology. For fractal dimension values between 2.2 and 3.0, fractal dimension was measured with an accuracy of 0.1, and effective density was measured with 15% relative accuracy.
