The saline aerosols generated in gaseous media, as nanodispersions, behave, with respect to the concentration levels and the lifespan, as trimodal distributions (the three domains with Gaussian distributions: fine or Aitken under 50 �m, medium between 50 and 500 mm and, respectively, coarse or large between 500 and 1000 mm). The generation in latent state is dependent on the active surface of the source (number of generator centres, the size and position of the fluorescences, the porosity, size and shape of the source, etc.), the climatic parameters, but also on a series of other characteristics of the gaseous medium. Our team has demonstrated experimentally that saline aerosols, NaCl type, besides the ability to prevent and treat broncho-respiratory and cardiac conditions, through coassistance of saline aerosols of other cations than sodium, and of the iodine anion, have for certain levels of concentrations propitious effects over the immune, bone and muscular systems. Similarly proved has been the positive influence on the development of children, as well the determinant role in increasing athletic performance and of other human subjects performing intense activities.

In order to explore potential applications for Active Fiber Composite (AFC) elements made from piezoelectric fibers for structural integrity monitoring, a model experiment for leak testing on pipe segments has been designed. A pipe segment made of aluminum with a diameter of 60 mm has been operated with gaseous (compressed air) and liquid media (water) for a range of operating pressures (between about 5 and 8 bar). Artificial leaks of various sizes (diameter) have been introduced. In the preliminary experiments presented here, commercial Acoustic Emission (AE) sensors have been used instead of the AFC elements. AE sensors mounted on waveguides in three different locations have monitored the flow of the media with and without leaks. AE signals and AE waveforms have been recorded and analysed for media flow with pressures ranging from about 5 to about 8 bar. The experiments to date show distinct differences in the FFT spectra depending on whether a leak is present or not.
