I installed the drivers of this device and it works
iwconfig
here i got:
wlan1 unassociated Nickname:"<WIFI@REALTEK>"
Mode:Managed Frequency=2.412 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated
Sensitivity:0/0
Retry:off RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
but i can't switch it to "monitor mode":
ifconfig wlan1 down
iwconfig wlan1 mode monitor
i got an error:
Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
SET failed on device wlan1 ; Invalid argument.
TL-WN821N 's chip : Realtek RTL8192EU. I'm wondering if it doesn't support "monitor mode" ?

You can verify if your wifi card support the monitor mode through the iw command.
There is an example:
iw list | grep "Supported interface modes" -A10
sample output ( the monitor mode is supported ) :
Supported interface modes:
* IBSS
* managed
* AP
* AP/VLAN
* WDS
* monitor
* mesh point
* P2P-client
* P2P-GO
* outside context of a BSS
