Secondly, the performance of the twin-fluid atomizer with best performance was compared with those of the commercial twin-fluid MMA100 type together with the single-fluid swirl type. In the CO2 adsorption tests, mists were sprayed five minutes by the respective types in turn in a test room, and time variations of CO2 concentration in air after the introduction of CO2 in the room were measured at the bottom of the room to compare the CO2 adsorption rates by the mists for the respective cases. In addition, diameters of droplets for the respective types were measured with a microscope. As a result, superiority of our twin-fluid atomizer was confirmed, because 40% droplets were 20 to 40 μm in diameter, and the CO2 adsorption rate by the mists with our twin-fluid atomizer was 25% higher than that with the commercial ones.展开更多
