<p num="1"><br/><br/><br/>The present invention concerns capillary force vaporizers for use in <br/>vaporizing liquids and emitting pressurized vapors. In one embodiment, the <br/>inventive capillary force vaporizer includes a porous member, a heater <br/>component to convey heat to the porous member, and a vapor containment region. <br/>The porous member further includes a capillary network, a surface for <br/>receiving liquid and a vaporization area in which vapor is produced from the <br/>liquid. The vapor is collected and pressurized within the vapor containment <br/>region, which includes one or more openings for the release of vapor at a <br/>velocity greater than zero. Several different embodiments for capillary force <br/>vaporizers and systems comprising capillary force vaporizers are disclosed <br/>along with methods for their use.<br/></p> |
