Abstract
Apparatus for the conveyance and atomization of a liquid including at least one nozzle directed toward an atomizing chamber, a pressure source or reservoir providing a conveying pressure for the liquid, a fluid-dynamic connection connecting the nozzle and the pressure source or reservoir, and an electrode disposed a predetermined distance in front of the nozzle. At least a portion of the nozzle is formed of an electrically conductive material and is electrically insulated at least with respect to the electrode. A difference in potential is applied between the electrically conductive portion of the nozzle and the electrode during an atomizing period, whereby liquid discharged from the nozzle is atomized.
