What
is the non-wetting mist, "Dry Fog"?
|
|
|
|


 |
| The finest mist with
its droplets' size distributed in a very tight range. |
|

As shown below, there is
significant difference between each droplet size sprayed by the
conventional pneumatic nozzle and by AKIJetR under the same condition.
Large sized droplets do bad things in humidification; they hit objects
and make them wet. |
 |


 |
| Why doesn't Dry Fog
wet the object? |
|

| As shown below, small droplets
rebound from an object, but large droplets get burst and wet the
object. This is just like how soap bubbles do. |
 |


The followings are pictures
of droplets collected by Immersion Sampling and droplet diameter
distribution measured by the laser analyzer.
AKIJet® nozzle produces Dry Fog with the maximum droplet diameter
of 50 microns or less and Sauter Mean Droplet diameter of 5.9 microns.
