Construction of the new UNC dual Aerosol chamber

• Constructed in 2002 and took about 1 year to complete

• The dual chamber is Quonset hut in design, width = 8.53 m

length = 9.75 m

height = 3.89 m

The total chamber volume is ~270m3

• The walls of the chamber are made of 5 mil FEP Teflon film and are attached on 1.22 m centers to 4.81 cm o.d. round tubular metal frames that form the superstructure of the chamber.

• A suspended 5 mil FEP Teflon film (type C) curtain, (Livingstone Plastics, Charlotte, NC) bisects the chamber to form two chamber halves.

• The small superstructure frame creates very little shadowing of the sunlight entering the chamber and also provides a very durable structure.
