Research Abstract |
A measurement system of photochemical ozone production rates has been developed. Ambient air is introduced into the reaction chamber which transmits solar ultraviolet and the reference chamber which blocks UV. Both chambers are placed in the outside to be exposed to ambient solar UV. Ozone is photochemically produced in the reaction chamber. Meanwhile, no ozone is formed in the reference chamber. An ozone production rate can be obtained by dividing the difference of ozone concentrations between the two chambers by the residence time in the reaction chamber. These instruments have been constructed, and optimizationsof this instrument and preliminary observations have been conducted.
