Abstract
High-resolution infrared tunable diode-laser (TDL) spectroscopy has been applied to the study of cigarette smoke for the simultaneous quantitative determination of volatile smoke component deliveries and the dynamic filter ventilation during smoking of a single cigarette. The objective of this work was to determine more accurately the relationship of filter design and ventilation to the cigarette smoke delivery on a puff-by-puff basis. This Information can be utilized in the basic understanding of the combustion process and the development of new products.
