3、sThis standard has been included in the VDI/DIN Handbook on air quality, volume 5National foreword This standard has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 146 “Air quality”, Subcommittee SC 4 “General aspects”. The responsible German body involved in its preparation was the Kommission Reinhalt
4、ung der Luft (KRdL) im VDI und DIN-Normenausschuss (Commission on Air Pollution Prevention of VDI and DIN Standards Committee), Section IV Umweltmesstechnik. Amendments This standard differs from DIN ISO 4226:1996-02 as follows: a) For the quantity “volume fraction of gaseous pollutants” (3.1.1.2),
5、the unit “part per million (10-6)” has been replaced by the units “cubic centimetre per cubic metre” and “cubic millimetre per cubic metre”. The use of “ppm” is no longer allowed. b) The quantity “molar fraction of gaseous pollutants” (3.1.1.3) has been added. c) The quantity “diffusion coefficient
6、of gaseous pollutants” (3.1.1.5) has been added. d) For the quantity “size of particles” (3.1.2.2), the unit “nanometre” has been added. e) The quantity “deposition rate” (3.1.2.4) has been added. f) The quantity “deposition velocity” (3.1.2.5) has been added. g) For the quantity “atmospheric pressu
7、re” (3.3.5), the unit “hectopascal” has been added. h) The quantity “absolute humidity” (3.3.6) has been added. i) The quantity “mixing ratio” (3.3.7) has been added. j) The quantity “visibility” (3.3.8) has been added. k) The quantity “universal transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinates” (3.5.2) has be

ISO 31-0, Quantities and units Part 0: General principles ISO 1000, SI units and recommendations for the use of their multiples and of certain other units 3 Units The units specified in Table 1 shall be used when reporting results of air quality measurements. The units of other quantities used i
11、n reporting shall be in accordance with ISO 1000 and with the general principles concerning units specified in ISO 31-0. Introduction The series of International Standards on air quality includes the standardization of methods for the measurement of gases, vapours and particles. In order to enable r
12、esults to be compared either within or between countries, it is essential to use agreed units of measurement to report the results and other relevant information so that sound conclusions may be drawn. It is also desirable to keep the number of units of measurement to a minimum. DIN ISO 4226:2009-02

Longitude can also be indicated with respect to the longitude of Greenwich by, using “+” for western longitude and “” for eastern longitude. fUTM coordinates are expressed in terms of a zone and easting and northing coordinates within this zone. The coordinates are expressed in metres. DIN ISO 4226:2009-02 5
