Flow Rate-Rise Time Profiles from Model Dry Powder Inhaler (DPI) Testing of Abbreviated Impactor Systems Compared with Their Full Resolution Counterparts Initial Experimental Data

A previous EPAG cross-industry study investigated flow rate-rise time profiles with full resolution CIs at target flow rates of 30, 60 and 90 L/min and with orifice plates representative of high-, medium-, and low-resistance DPIs. The study goal was to quantify how such differences may affect characteristic flow rate-rise time profiles.
