Abstract
A vaporizer apparatus includes a liquid inlet; a plurality of plates in a stacked arrangement and configured with openings and surfaces defining a tortuous path for a liquid through the plurality of plates; an atomizer configured to atomize liquid from the liquid inlet and inject a spray of the liquid toward a first plate of the plurality of plates, wherein the plurality of plates is configured to direct a flow of the liquid through the tortuous path from a first end corresponding to the first plate and output a vapor of the liquid at a second end of the tortuous path corresponding to a last plate of the plurality of plates; and at least one heating element configured to heat the plurality of plates to vaporize the liquid along its flow through the tortuous path and generate the vapor.
