Photographs (top) and 3D-figure (bottom) of the experimental setup. Black tape on the probe chamber’s foil indicates the left and right opening slots allowing air exchange between successive measurements. Air flow measurement points are marked as coloured dots. Average room temperature was 24.0 ± 0.3 °C; average relative humidity was 42 ± 5% for flutists and 40 ± 6% for oboists. Air velocity never exceeded 0.01 m/s at the anemometer position. AS aerosol spectrometer, AN anemometer, HM/TM hygrometer/thermometer, MF microphone, SCN screen, ACL air cleaner, scales in m. The oboist gave her informed consent to publication of the photograph (right).
