Abstract
An apparatus for producing the glass soot used in the formation of optical fiber includes a burner with an internal atomizer. The atomizer includes an outer tube having a nozzle at an end thereof, and an inner tube located within the outer tube and having a closed end restricting fluid flow therethrough and defining a cylindrical sidewall having radially extending apertures spaced there along. The outer tube receives the glass-forming mixture in liquid form and the inner tube receives an atomizing gas which flows through the apertures in the sidewall of the inner tube and atomizes the glass-forming mixture as the glass-forming mixture travels through the outer tube.
