Abstract
In the production of metallic powder by atomization, using jets of inert gas, of a stream of molten metal entering a receiver, the atomized stream of molten metal is subject to the action of vortices produced within the receiver by a tangential flow of inert gas in the lower part of the receiver in order to increase the number of impacts between the atomized metal and the receiver walls to increase the rate of cooling of the atomized metal.
