Transmission fluctuation spectrometry (TFS), as a new method of online and real-time particle analysis developed in recent years, can measure the particle size distribution and particle concentration simultaneously. In this work, TFS with band-pass filters is studied by numerical simulation in which the particle concentration varies in a large dynamic range. The results of the simulations show that the transmission fluctuation spectrum is related to the particle concentration of the suspension, the pathlength of the light beam within the particle system and the beam-to-particle diameter ratio. Empirical expressions to correct the effects of particle overlapping on the transmission fluctuation spectrum are obtained, which are found to be experimentally validated.
