CA 2406042

An aerosol is formed by supplying a material in liquid form to a flow passage (23) and heating the flow passage with a heater (27) such that the material volatizes and expands out of an open end (25) of the flow passage. The volatized material combines with ambient air such that volatized material condenses to form the aerosol. An apparatus (21) and method for generating such an aerosol are disclosed wherein the apparatus may include an electrically conductive sleeve (26) at an open end of the flow passage, an electrically conductive flow passage and/or a spacer chamber (38). The volatized material may contain a volatized solute and vehicle such that the resulting aerosol particle sizes of the solute and the vehicle are either different or the same.

Selon l'invention, on prépare un aérosol en introduisant un matériau sous forme liquide dans un passage de flux et en chauffant ce passage de manière que le matériau s'évapore et se dilate à la sortie d'une extrémité ouverte dudit passage. Le matériau évaporé s'associe à l'air ambiant de manière à se condenser en vue de former l'aérosol. L'invention concerne également un appareil et un procédé de préparation d'un tel aérosol, l'appareil pouvant comprendre un manchon électriquement conducteur disposé au niveau d'une extrémité ouverte du passage de flux, un passage de flux électriquement conducteur et/ou une chambre de séparation. Le matériau évaporé peut contenir un soluté et un véhicule évaporés de manière que les granulométries obtenues de l'aérosol du soluté et du véhicule soient différentes ou identiques.
