Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: select, by referring to the memory that stores a plurality of correlations between a second mass concentration of particles in a gas and a second number concentration of the particles in the gas with respect to second humidity of the gas, two correlations from the plurality of correlations; and calculate a first mass concentration of particles in a gas based on the two correlations, a first number concentration of the particles in the gas measured by a first number concentration measuring instrument, and first humidity of the gas measured by a first hygrometer.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An information processing system comprising:
a first measurement station including a first number concentration measuring instrument and a first hygrometer;
a second measurement station including a mass concentration measuring instrument, a second number concentration measuring instrument and a second hygrometer; and
a measurement apparatus coupled to the first measurement station and the second measurement station,
the measurement apparatus is configured to:
acquire, from the second measurement station, a second humidity of an air, a second mass concentration of particles in the gas and a second number concentration of the particles in the gas;
calculate a plurality of correlations of the second mass concentration with respect to the second humidity and the second number concentration with respect to the second humidity;
store the plurality of correlations in a memory;
acquire, from the first measurement station, a first humidity of the air and a first number concentration of the particles in the gas;
select, from the memory, two correlations based on the first humidity and a measurement time of the first number concentration; and
calculate a first mass concentration of particles in a gas based on the two correlations, the first number concentration and the first humidity.

2. The information processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of correlations is obtained by repeating, over a period longer than a predetermined period, acquiring the second mass concentration, the second number concentration, and the second humidity over the predetermined period, and calculating each of the correlations from the second mass concentration, the second number concentration and the second humidity.

3. The information processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the measurement apparatus is configured to calculate the first mass concentration of particles in the gas based on a conversion formula which is calculated by interpolation or extrapolation using the two correlations.

4. The information processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the measurement apparatus is configured to select the two correlations based on the second mass concentration, the second number concentration, and the second humidity which are measured at a time close to a time when the first number concentration is measured by the first number concentration measuring instrument or a time when the first humidity is measured by the first hygrometer.
