Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) offer a new approach for monitoring PM in inaccessi- ble or dangerous locations. Computational fluid dynamics software and a wind-tunnel experiment were used to evaluate the flow field at 20, 30, and 40m/s, as well as the trajectories of PM1, PM2.5, and PMlo. The numerical simulation results show that the PM sampling head can be installed 440-680 mm from the UAV nose, and at least 130, 135, and 145 mm below the horizontal axis for free stream velocities of 20, 30, and 40 m/s, respectively. Wind-tunnel experiment results confirmed and improved on those numer- ical results, and showed that the PM sampling head can be 500-600 mm aft the UAV nose, at vertical distances below the horizontal axis of at least 138 mm for 500-550 mm, and 157 mm for 550-600 mm. In addition, sampling points can be located at either side of the optimal ranges, not only on the center line or the UAV.展开更多
