Experimental and Numerical Studies of a New Quartz Atomizer for Vaping Devices

A new atomizer for vaping devices will be studied experimentally and numerically. The visualization of the flow inside the atomizer microchannels and the liquid film formed over to the top surface of the atomizer (with and without surface heating) will be attempted. Aerosol characterization using Phase Doppler Anemometer (PDA) will be conducted. In addition, numerical studies using VOF (Volume of Fluid) will be performed and validated against the obtained experimental data. The “know-how” and research data to be obtained in this project will be used by the company in the continuous improvement and development of new vaping devices as well as medication delivery.
