Abstract
A nozzle and a method of generating an aerosol from a fluid and a gas by operating the nozzle. The nozzle has an aerosol exit orifice of a larger diameter and a fluid exit orifice of a smaller diameter aligned on a common central axis. A pressurized gas from a pressurized gas exit in close proximity to the fluid exit orifice intersects a fluid jet exiting from the fluid exit orifice at that acute angle and in a distance from the aerosol exit orifice. The method includes aerosolizing a fluid with a viscosity exceeding 4 cSt delivering an inhalable medication at a rate of more than 1 ml/minute, thereby delivering a medication at a mass flow rate of at least 30 mg/minute in form of the fluid particles having a mass median aerodynamic diameter (MMAD) of 6 μm or less.
