Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2014183073A1] The present disclosure relates to devices and methods for controlling particle size, flow direction, and flow rate of an aerosol in an electronic smoking device. A flow discharge device 100 for an electronic smoking device 800 comprises a body and a through-hole 140. The body is configured for assembly with a housing 810 of an electronic smoking device 800, and has a first surface 110 and a second surface 130. The through-hole 140 extends from the first surface 110 to the second surface 130, and is shaped to adjust characteristics of flow between the first surface 110 and the second surface 130. In one particular embodiment, the through-hole 140 is shaped as a nozzle having a throat region 190 and a diverging region 180 downstream of the throat region 190.
