The devices using this method to achieve atomization are called as airblast, air-assist, or popularly twin-fluid atomizers. In a Rotary Atomizer, the rotating cup or disc forces the liquid to come out at a very high speed through its rim. [1] [2] The Rotary, Pressure-swirl [3] or Twin-fluid Atomizers [4] are the most common methods for spray ...
A rotary atomizer is an automatic electrostatic paint applicator used in high volume, automatic production painting environments. Also called a 'paint bell', "rotary bell atomizer" or 'bell applicator', it is preferred for high volume paint application for its superior transfer efficiency, spray pattern consistency, and low compressed air consumption, when compared to a paint spray gun.
A spray nozzle or atomizer is a device that facilitates the dispersion of a liquid by the formation of a spray. The production of a spray requires the fragmentation of liquid structures, such as liquid sheets or ligaments, into droplets, often by using kinetic energy to overcome the cost of creating additional surface area.
Examples include fuel injectors for gasoline and diesel engines, atomizers for jet engines (gas turbines), [12] atomizers for injecting heavy fuel oil into combustion air in steam boiler injectors, and rocket engine injectors. Drop size is critical because the large surface area of a finely atomized spray enhances fuel evaporation rate.
The spray drying technique was first described in 1860 with the first spray dryer instrument patented by Samuel Percy in 1872. [citation needed] With time, the spray drying method grew in popularity, at first mainly for milk production in the 1920s and during World War II, when there was a need to reduce the weight and volume of food and other materials.
The extent of the impacts of the Trump administration’s sudden 90-day freeze of almost all foreign aid is still unclear almost a week on, as officials and aid workers overseas try to make sense ...
The aerosol spray canister invented by USDA researchers, Lyle Goodhue and William Sullivan.. The concepts of aerosol probably go as far back as 1790. [1] The first aerosol spray can patent was granted in Oslo in 1927 to Erik Rotheim, a Norwegian chemical engineer, [1] [2] and a United States patent was granted for the invention in 1931. [3]
Tesla turbine at Nikola Tesla Museum. The Tesla turbine is a bladeless centripetal flow turbine invented by Nikola Tesla in 1913. [1] It functions as nozzles apply a moving fluid to the edges of a set of discs.
