<p>In a method of atomizing liquids, a first gaseous medium is caused by ejector action to be sucked along with, and mixed up with, a second flowing gaseous medium, the first gaseous medium being caused to entrain liquid medium, which is caused by said ejector action to be sucked into the flow path of the first gaseous medium, so that the liquid medium is mixed with, and atomized in, the first and second gaseous media. An apparatus for this purpose comprises a nozzle element (1), means (14, 15) for supplying the second gaseous drive medium to the nozzle element (1) and means (4, 10) for supplying liquid which is to be atomized. Inlet means (2, 18) for the first gaseous medium are arranged for sucking it into the nozzle element (1) by means of said ejector action, and the liquid supply means comprise container means (4, 9) with an at least partially open upper part opening out in connection with the incoming flow path of the first gaseous medium, so that liquid in the container means (4, 9) can be caused by said ejector action successively to rise above the container upper part and into said flow path, and to be continuously entrained by the first gaseous medium flowing into the nozzle for being atomized in the mixture of the gaseous media.</p> |
