A laser
based Air Quality Monitoring system was designed and fabricated in
an attempt to synthesize design principles of a nephelometer and a
transmissiometer and monitor specific constituents
of the atmosphere. Essentially in the system light from a He-Ne laser source
passes through a simulation chamber and the extinction and scattering is
monitored by a set of phototransistor based detectors.
The signals from the detectors are digitized and interfaced to a personal
computer, where a data acquisition software "moniotors"
and records the data which is subsequently analyzed
using spreadsheet programs. This paper reports the design aspects of the
fabricated instrument and gives the findings of investigations done on atmospheric
humidity at varying oxygen levels. ©Anita Publications. All rights reserved.
