the object of the present invention is a liquid atomization procedure that uses appropriate geometric parameters and physical properties to ensure that the liquid to be atomized is discharged as a continuous , steady capillary microjet through a suitable orifice . the procedure relies on the microwithdrawal effect undergone by a liquid - gas interface when the gas is withdrawn from a point near the liquid surface . the invented procedure is applicable to any mechanism involving homogeneous atomization of liquids .
