Method of and apparatus for generating mixed and atomized fluids

Abstract

A method of generating mixed and atomized fluids is disclosed in which at least two fluids selected from gases, liquids and powders, are flown through a flow passageway including a first convergent and a subsequent divergent flowing zones, whereby the fluids are subjected to change in pressure, thereby being mixed and atomized. The mixed and atomized fluids are spouted from a second convergent flowing zone at a high speed toward a fluid reflecting means. The spouted mixed fluids collide with the fluid reflecting means and are further mixed with one another and further atomized when the mixed fluids are reflected from the fluid reflecting means. A fluid spouting composite nozzle unit for practicing the method is also disclosed in which a first nozzle has the first convergent flowing zone and the divergent flowing zone, and a second nozzle has the second convergent flowing zone. The fluid reflecting means is disposed on the downstream side of the spouting hole of the second nozzle. The first and second nozzles and the fluid reflecting means are interconnected so that an assembled unit is formed.
