The output quantities of the diameter statistics object are listed below:<br />

Output quantity Description<br />

X, Y, Z Traverse position<br />

Spherical<br />

validation<br />

For <strong>BSA</strong> P processor only.<br />

The mean spherical validation rate (%) in that position<br />

based on the <strong>BSA</strong>’s validation readings. (see chapter<br />

5.3.4)<br />

D10 Mean diameter<br />

D20 Area mean diameter<br />

D30 Volume mean diameter<br />

D32 Sauter mean diameter (SMD)<br />

D43 De Broukere mean diameter<br />

Dv0.1 10% fractional volume diameter: 10% of the total particle<br />

volume is contained in particles smaller than this<br />

diameter.<br />

Dv0.5 50% fractional volume diameter (Volume median<br />

diameter)<br />

Dv0.9 90% fractional volume diameter<br />

Dv0.98 98% fractional volume diameter<br />

V100 The percentage by volume of droplets with a diameter<br />

smaller than 100µm<br />

Span Describes the width of the size distribution<br />

Concentration The average number of particles per unit volume<br />

(particles/cm³)<br />

U Flux The volume flux of particle material in the direction of the<br />

U velocity component through a reference area per unit of<br />

time (cm³/cm²/s)<br />

V Flux The volume flux of particle material in the direction of the<br />

V velocity component through a reference area per unit of<br />

time (cm³/cm²/s)<br />

Table 5-5: Description of diameter statistics moments.<br />

The definition of all the mean diameters, flux <strong>and</strong> concentration are given in<br />

the chapter 7.5: Data analysis.<br />
