An experimental technique was developed to measure the oral deposition of aerosols by successively drawing them passively through (1) the nasal and oral passage in series, and (2) the nose and an oral bypass "extension tube" inserted into the oral cavity just anterior to the uvula. To test this technique, a replicate human upper airway cast was challenged with monodisperse aerosols ranging in diameter from 3.6 to 150.0 nm at constant flow rates ranging from 7.5 to 30 L/min. For the inhalation study, test aerosols were drawn into the nasal cavity and directed either through the laryngeal-tracheal (L-T) section or the oral passage with/without the oral extension tube. The flow was reversed for the exhalation study. Deposition fractions of aerosols in the main oral cavity were found approximately equal to those in the L-T section for both inhalation and exhalation. Following this phase of the study, experimental measurements of total particle deposition fraction for the oral inlet-tracheal outlet path were performed. The results of these measurements agreed well with the calculated oral deposition fractions based on the initial measurements. This technique has application for measuring oral deposition of larger particles encountered in occupational environments.
