Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for atomizing at least one jet of a liquid or solid substance, preferably molten metal, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • the invention is based on a known device (EP-A1 0 308 933), in which the radiating sonotrode surfaces are arranged in the tapered section of a nozzle, through which an inert or reaction gas is introduced into the ultrasound field between the sonotrode surfaces. This gas flow promotes the atomization process and allows targeted particle transport out of the atomization area.
  • the combustion air can be blown radially through slot or ring nozzles into the pressure bellies or nodes of the standing wave of an ultrasonic field which is generated between a sonotrode and a reflector.
  • the invention has for its object to design the device of the type described in such a way that the atomization throughput is significantly increased and the atomization process can be better regulated.
  • the atomizing fluid jet which is usually liquid
  • the additional fluid which is usually gaseous
  • the throughput of additional fluid through the nozzles can be set separately from the atomizing fluid.
  • a plurality of atomizing and additional fluid jets are preferably introduced.
  • the throughput of atomizing fluid should not exceed an upper limit, since the jet then breaks through in the atomizing area and reduces the atomizing power.
  • additional fluid streams are introduced into the atomization areas in the pressure node simultaneously and in addition to the actual atomizing fluid jet, the atomizing fluid mass throughput can be increased significantly.
  • Liquids in particular melts
  • solid substances minerals, powders, foams
  • Gas, steam, mist, liquid, powder or the like can be used as the additional fluid.
  • FIG. 1 shows the device known from EP-A 0 308 933, in which an ultrasound standing field 3 with pressure nodes and pressure bellies is generated between two sonotrodes 1 and 2.
  • the openings of melting crucibles 4 open into the node areas, from which one or more jets of melt emerge and are atomized in the ultrasound field of a gas passed between the sonotrode surfaces 5, 6.
  • the sonotrode 2 belongs to an ultrasonic oscillator 10, which is shown in FIG. 2, which has a booster 11 and a converter 12.
  • a housing 15 surrounding the converter 12 and the booster 11 is fastened in a pressure-tight manner.
  • the housing 15 is arranged via a sleeve 17, which is also provided with seals 16, in an outer housing 18 which forms the passage through a wall 19 which separates the outer space 20 from the pressure space 21, in which the atomization is carried out.
  • the cable 22 is introduced into the converter 12 via the housing 18.
  • the housing 15 can be adjusted axially via an adjusting device 23.
  • FIG. 3 shows an end view of the sonotrode surface 5 of the sonotrode 1.
  • the atomizing fluid nozzles 25 there are several individual additional fluid nozzles 26 which are connected to pressure medium sources (not shown).
  • the nozzles 25 and 26 are directed radially and offset on the circumference. Fluid flows are directed via the nozzles 25, 26 specifically onto the longitudinal axis 7 of the oscillator arrangement.
  • the introduction into the pressure node areas of the ultrasound field is preferably carried out, as can also be seen from FIG. 5.
  • the nozzles are arranged alternately, so that in addition to an atomizing fluid jet from the nozzle 25, an additional fluid jet emerges from the nozzle 26.
  • FIG. 4 shows ring nozzles 28 in which the atomizing fluid jet emerges from a central opening 29 and the additional fluid jet emerges from an annular opening 30 which surrounds the central nozzle in an annular manner. All of these nozzles are each directed into a pressure node area of the standing wave.
  • FIG. 5 shows the arrangement of several such individual or ring nozzles 25, 26, 28 shown in FIG. 3 or 4 for introducing atomizing and additional fluid flows into the individual pressure node areas of the standing shaft.
  • a plurality of nozzles 25, 26, 28 are again provided for each pressure node area, as shown in FIG. 3 or 4.
  • FIG. 6 shows a flat nozzle 35 with inlets 36 for atomizing fluid and inlets 37 for additional gas.
  • the additional gas jet enters the atomizing area of the ultrasonic wave in a targeted manner on both sides of the atomizing gas jet emerging in the center.
  • FIG. 7 shows the end view 5 of a rectangular sonotrode 1, for which the flat nozzle 35 is particularly suitable.
  • the atomizing performance can also be increased with such a large-area sonotrode.
  • FIG. 8 shows the arrangement in which a plurality of nozzles 25, 26 or ring nozzles 28 arranged in rows next to one another are provided in the ultrasound field generated by a large-area, rectangular sonotrode 1, each of which is arranged in the planes of the pressure node areas.
  • FIG. 9 shows a further measure to improve the atomization performance.
  • the sonotrode surfaces 5 and 6 are concave, so that the energy in the node of the ultrasonic standing wave is focused and thus the acoustic pressure is increased.
  • the sonotrode radiation surfaces can also be coated in order to reduce wettability. This can be done, for example, by vapor deposition of boron nitrite, titanium nitrite or by chrome plating or anodizing, etc.
