Abstract
A particle concentrator, having a top and a bottom and including a hollow outer hub, having a top and bottom and bottom wall, and a side wall defining a plurality of sampled airflow inlet slots. An inner hub is placed in the outer hub and has a hollow interior, and which for each one of the sampled airflow inlet slots, supports a blade defining a secondary airflow slot aligned to a sampled airflow inlet slot, is sealed at its top, and is in fluid communication with the hollow interior of the inner hub, and wherein each adjacent two blades define a space between blades. A fan assembly is for blowing air out of the top of the outer hub, from the spaces between blades, causing air inflow through the sampled airflow inlet slots, some air then flowing into the secondary airflow slots, where it flows into the inner hub.
