Frequently Updated Research: - Ongoing studies on optimizing the design of nozzle assemblies for various applications.

Original Abstract Submitted

A product on demand nozzle assembly includes a chamber at least partially defined by an external wall and an array of vertically spaced nozzles. Each nozzle has an air inlet, an air and entrained product outlet extending from the external wall, and an entrainment zone between the air inlet and the air and entrained product outlet to receive a product therein to be distributed.
