The mixing ratio of O3 (ppb) must not exceed 80% of the mixing ratio of NO (ppb). Only<br />

if these conditions are met, the reaction<br />

NO+O3 -----> NO2 + O2<br />

will consume the ozone completely.<br />

(vi) Basic Calculations<br />

General equation to calculate gas mixtures, using high<br />

concentrated calibration gases from pressurized cylinders as initial source:<br />

Vx<br />

C = Cv * .____________________________<br />

(V1 + V2 + V3 +V4 +V5 +V6 +V7 + V8 )<br />

General equation to calculate gas mixtures, using a permeation tube system<br />

as initial source<br />

PT<br />

C = _____________________________<br />

(V1 + V2 + V3 +V4 +V5 +V6 +V7 + V8) .F<br />

General equation to calculate gas mixtures of O3, using an O3 – generator as<br />

initial source:<br />

Co3<br />

C = ______________________________<br />

(V1 + V2 + V3 +V4 +V5 +V6 +V7 + V8)<br />

General equation to calculate the relative humidity, in case the humidifier ( a<br />

simple gas bubbler or wash bottle) is used:<br />

V3<br />

RH = 100 * _______________________________<br />

(V1 + V2 + V3 +V4 +V5 +V6 +V7 + V8)<br />

Legend<br />

C: concentration of the corresponding gas after dilution (ppm, mixing ratio)<br />

Cv : concentration of the , “initial source”<br />

(ppm, mixing ratio of the calibration gas in pressurized gas<br />

cylinders)<br />

CO3 : Source strength of the O3 – generator ( ppm/l)<br />

RH : Relative humidity (%)<br />

PT : Permeation rate ( mg/min)<br />
