Abstract:
A micro-atomizing device comprising:a fluid conduit having an outer chamber and an inner channel;means for forming moving vortices in a first fluid in said outer chamber of said fluid conduit;a plurality of passages within said fluid conduit constructed and arranged to geometrically reduce the areas and volumes to intensify said moving vortices;said plurality of passages being in fluid communication with a vortex accumulation resonant chamber;said inner channel being constructed and arranged to conduct a second fluid through said fluid conduit into said vortex accumulation resonant chamber;whereby the accumulation of said moving vortices in said vortex accumulation resonant chamber creates a high vacuum force field including shockwaves such that said high vacuum force field draws said second fluid through said inner channel, induces cold boiling of said second fluid, and said shockwaves further micro-atomize said second fluid into droplets within said vortex accumulation resonant chamber.
