The flow field and electric field of the sensor are studied and their distribution in the sensor is analyzed. At the same time, the particle tracking model was used to simulate the charged characteristics of particles in the sensor under different exhaust states. It is found that the exhaust gas flow rate maintains stability after entering the outer protection zone and concentration test zone. The electric field is a non-uniform electric field and the direction of electric field intensity is from the high voltage electrode to the grounding electrode. The electric charge per particle will decrease with the increase of exhaust flow rate, but the electric charge shows a slow growth trend. The charge of particles increases with the increase of exhaust temperature, exhaust gas concentration and particle size. The study of the charged characteristics under different environmental conditions provides a theoretical basis for further improving the prototype mechanism of a leakage flow particle sensor.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s20216226","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,31]],"date-time":"2020-10-31T21:39:56Z","timestamp":1604180396000},"page":"6226","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Simulation and Experimental Research on the Charged Characteristics of Particulate Matter in the Sensor under Different Exhaust States"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Dong","family":"Tang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Automotive and Traffic Engineering, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang 212013, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zhixuan","family":"Ju","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Automotive and Traffic Engineering, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang 212013, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Li","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Automotive and Traffic Engineering, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang 212013, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3323","DOI":"10.1021\/ie8015544","article-title":"Soot Combustion Dynamics in a Planar Diesel Particulate Filter","volume":"48","author":"Chen","year":"2009","journal-title":"Ind.
