METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR CREATING AEROSOLS

摘要

Aerosols can be created by filament stretching and breaking of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids by applying a strain to and stretching the fluid. The fluid is stretched along a strain pathway and forms a fluid filament between diverging surfaces. The stretched fluid filament breaks into droplets that can be harvested to form a mist or aerosol. The aerosol creation system includes multiple rollers (2302) that are positioned apart from each other in a circular pattern between two concentric rings (2304, 2306).
