Abstract U.S. Department of Energy. #An aerosol Conditioner (wetted wall reactor) was modified to mimic the conditions inside the human respiratory tract, i.e., relative humidity > 99% and 37CC. By combining the wetted wall reactory with tandem differential mobility analyzer, a system was developed to study the hygroscopic properties of' aerosols in submicrometer range. This paper describes the system, and the results of system tests using three com- pounds of known composition, NaCI, (NH4)2SO4, and (NH4)HSO4, are presented.
