EN The liquid atomization is very important and widespread process in many branches of industry and in agriculture. The technology development, better construction solutions to improve atomization process for the specific application are searched for. Depending on the assignment on which the atomizer is to be used, there are different requirements. Atomization itself doesn’t mean that the process proceeds in a correct and that performance of the spray system is optimum. The application of the effervescent atomizer witch swirl motion phenomenon improves of atomization process compared to pressure-swirl or effervescent atomizers, affects aerosol quality, improves atomization process and ensures its optimization. The spray parameters are influence by many factors: geometric dimensions, liquid properties and operational conditions. The dimensions of atomizer outlet, mixing chamber, aerator have the most important impact on the atomization process. Viscosity and surface tension affect Sauter mean diameter. Viscosity also affects spray angle, while the significant influence of the surface tension on the spray angle has not been shown.
