In this study, a direct-flow-type nose-only exposure chamber developed for inhalation toxicity experiments using a numerical analysis and experiments is evaluated. Maintaining a uniform flow rate and test article concentration are the critical factors when designing an inhalation exposure chamber. Therefore, this study evaluated whether the flow rate and particle size distribution at the injection nozzles at each port could be maintained with a deviation below 10%. To achieve this requirement, a nose-only exposure chamber flow field was simulated using a numerical analysis method, i.e. computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code FLUENT 6.3.26. Based on the simulation results, a test chamber was built and tested. The flow velocity was measured at the injection nozzle of the chamber and the aerosol particle size distribution was also measured at each port while inserting the test material into the exposure chamber. The results indicated that a uniform flow field distribution at each stage and port, the deviation of the flow velocity, and particle size distribution were all within 10%. Thus, the resulting nose-only exposure chamber could be described as well-designed.
