The interaction of fine particles from oil combustion with water droplets was studied in a flow chamber experimentallyA novel fine particle capture technique with wetting agents was developed to investigate particle number concentration and size distribution before and after the interactionThe characteristics of particle capture with different wetting agents were also evaluatedThe particle size distribution and concentration were measured by electrical low pressure impactor(ELPI).The dependence of fine particles capture mechanism on microstructure and elemental compositions was analyzed with SEM and EDSThe results showed that the capture efficiency appeared to be closely related to the physicochemical properties of fine particlesThe SEM and EDS analysis showed that particles from oil combustion were basically spherical,carboncontaining hydrophobic particlesAnd the capture efficiency of fine particles with plain water droplets was low,but could be enhanced with wetting agents added to the atomized dropletsThe capture efficiency could increase by 15% with adding Silanol w22 against plain water dropletsThe investigation could be used to test and choose different wetting agents for fine particles capture.
