Particle size distribution is measured continuously using a Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer (SMPS), which consists of a Differential Mobility Analyzer (DMA model TSI long, TSI Inc., Shoreview, MN, USA) and a Condensation Particle Count (CPC model 3772, TSI Inc., Shoreview, MN, USA), measuring the total particle number concentration. The DMA scans the particle mobility diameter between 13.6 and 736.5 nm, forming a monodisperse aerosol flow whose concentration is measured by the CPC.
