Abstract
Novel cluster nozzle designs useful for the formation of atomized sprays of fine liquid droplets in a continuous gas phase are described. A plurality of individual gas-liquid mixing zones communicate with a common source of liquid and a common source of gas to form gas-liquid mixtures for spraying from individual orifices in the nozzle. An improved uniformity of spray pattern is attained, as well as the ability to effect a greater liquid output from the nozzle through the use of larger size or numbers of orifices, while retaining very uniform sprays, by effecting a degree of premixing of liquid and gas before passage to the individual gas-liquid mixing zones.
