Aerosol Collection Apparatus and Methods

The lifetime of aerosol monitoring, concentration and collection equipment is extended by acoustic cleaning of accreted particle deposits from internal surfaces where fouling occurs by application of acoustic energy to the particle accretion surface, optionally in combination with a liquid wash or sampling volume. In one application, acoustic cleaning or sampling of particle deposits for analysis is triggered by a signal indicating changes in gas flow associated with particle loading. In another application, electro-acoustic transducers may be used to prevent particle buildup without interruption of particle monitoring.

Motor driver

In a motor driver, based on driving waveforms of respective phases generated by a driving waveform generator, a power feeder feeds respective phase-coils with an alternating current consecutively changing in sine wave. Further, a phase advancing controller adjusts phases of the driving waveform, and performs phase-advancing control such that each phase of back electromotive forces induced in respective phase-coils generally coincides with a phase of the ac running through the coils. In phase-advancing controlling, a phase current is detected with a common current. The structure discussed above can reduce torque ripples, vibrations and noises, and a motor thus can be driven efficiently.
