Abstract

Liquid to be atomized is uniformly sprayed on the inner surface of a hollow rotating cylinder, for example by means of one- or two-fluid-nozzles and is thus distributed on apertures provided in the cylinder wall. The rotation of the cylinder causes the liquid to flow outwards through the apertures. Droplets are generated when the liquid flows out of the apertures by laminary decomposition of the jet. The flow rate in each aperture lies in the range 1.0200 of apertures having the diameter D.sub.A in the cylinder wall causes the flow rate of liquid through each aperture to be relatively low, so that a continuous laminary flow in each aperture is ensured even at low viscosities and technically useful total flow rates.
