SAMPLING
SOURCE SAMPLING
Stack sampling
An overview of sampling techniques
DEFINITION
Sampling at such a rate that the velocity and the
direction of the gas entering the sampling nozzle is
the same as that of the gas in the duct / stack at the
same sampling point.
Source sampling Stack (Isokinetic)
Reasons for sampling
• To determine the effectiveness of control equipment
At any point “r” from the center the velocity is found from:
U/Center = (1 – r/R)1/7
Also known as the1/7th law
Other methods that the listed Schedule A may be used with the written
consent of the National Air Quality Officer

GASEOUS SAMPLING PRINCIPLES
• Moisture
• Gas composition
• Nozzle, probe direction
• Leakages on test equipment
• Test equipment not calibrated
• Non-compliance to minimum requirements of
relevant standard
• Not collecting enough particulate matter
• Unstable process conditions
