Abstract

See full text

Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide an inertial separation device, system, and method. The inertial separation device includes an inlet nozzle coupled to an expansion chamber. A sample outlet and an outlet port are coupled to the expansion chamber. In operation, a fluid sample passes though the inlet nozzle and is expanded in the expansion chamber such that the sample is separated into at least two fractions having different masses, a selected mass fraction passing through the sample outlet and a remaining portion of the sample passing out of the outlet port. A system including the inertial separation device includes a conduit coupled to the sample outlet nozzle and a detector coupled the conduit. The inlet nozzle may be, for example, coupled to an emissions source.
