The piezoelectric ceramic sheet (commonly known as ultrasonic atomization sheet) is installed at the bottom of a water container, and a drive control circuit generates a driving voltage consistent with the resonance frequency of the atomization sheet and is applied to the atomization sheet, and the atomization sheet will generate Oscillation energy. The oscillating energy propagates in the water along the direction perpendicular to the surface of the atomization sheet. In the case of suitable water depth, the water surface on the energy propagation axis concentrates and bulges a water column, and the front end of the water column concentrates on generating a large number of small tension waves, which causes the water surface to bulge. The surface tension of the water surface is greatly reduced. The water surface is split into many tiny areas by the wavelength of the surface tension wave. Each area is independent of each other as if they are not bonded to each other as a single particle, which emits the effect of forming a fog in the air. principle.
Ultrasonic atomization is the process of using ultrasonic energy to make liquid form fine droplets.
There are two ways to atomize liquid by ultrasonic:
1. The thin liquid layer on the vibrating surface excites a capillary-gravity wave under ultrasonic vibration.
2. The atomization method is the ultrasonic fountain to form fog.
method one
There are two theoretical explanations for the principle. They are micro shock wave theory and surface tension wave theory.
On the one hand, the micro-shock wave theory explains that the cavitation effect of ultrasonic waves in the liquid medium leads to the generation of micro-shock waves and atomization. This theory believes that the cavitation effect is the direct cause of the atomization of the liquid. When the cavitation bubble collapses, except for heat and light radiation, the rest is radiated in the form of micro shock waves. When the micro shock waves reach a certain intensity, the liquid is caused Atomization When the micro shock wave reaches a certain intensity, it causes the atomization of the liquid.
On the other hand, the surface tension theory believes that the generation of droplets is due to the instability of the surface wave of the liquid, which causes the liquid to atomize. Specifically, when a certain sound intensity of ultrasonic waves is directed to the gas-liquid interface through the liquid, the ultrasonic waves form surface tension waves at this interface. Under the action of the force perpendicular to the surface tension wave, once the amplitude of the vibrating surface reaches a certain value, the liquid droplets fly out of the wave crest to form atomization. This theory believes that the surface tension wave produces droplets at its peak, and the droplet size is proportional to the wavelength.

Method Two
Fountain atomization is a common form that uses piezoelectric wafers as transducers to generate megahertz ultrasonic waves. Generally, the formation mechanism of fountain atomization is as follows. When the ultrasonic transducer emits ultrasonic waves with a frequency of megahertz, the directivity of the ultrasonic waves and its cavitation field is very good, so that the solution in contact with it will be sprayed to form an "ultrasonic fountain" .
A large amount of aerosols are produced at the same time as the ultrasonic fountain is produced. Among them, the "ultrasonic fountain" can be regarded as an upward jet of ultrasonic cavitation field, which has a unidirectional radiation force and a symmetrical whirling sound flow. In this cavitation field, the distribution of cavitation bubbles is very different. When water and other liquids are cavitation, due to the effect of acoustic radiation pressure, the density of cavitation bubbles due to the physical effect of ultrasonic radiation force and bunching jet, the concentrated heat and mechanical effects of a large number of cavitation bubbles are more prominent at the front of the fountain , The sound energy density is also greatly improved along the jetting direction due to the ultrasonic free jet and bunch jet.
In the ultrasonic fountain, the high-temperature acoustic rush and high-pressure shock waves when a large number of cavitation bubbles collapse and burst are the main mechanisms of the ultrasonic fountain. Other mechanical stirring effects, thermal effects, etc. also exist at the same time. Ultrasonic humidifiers designed using this principle are often used as indoor humidification devices. It can humidify computer rooms and wool spinning workshops to remove static electricity from equipment; add drugs for indoor sterilization, facial beautification, and bonsai modeling.
