ABSTRACT
The aim of this research was to determine the influence of atomization degree change on distribution of
atomized liquid fall taking place under conditions of airflow of varied speed, and define liquid fall characteristics
for different nozzles in variable parameters and conditions such as airflow speed, liquid pressure, and
atomization height. The research was done in laboratory conditions in a wind tunnel. The results showed that
within the range of the accepted work conditions of the selected nozzles, the greater degree of atomization
does not impair the distribution of liquid fall over the atomized area.
