Abstract
An injection device is described herein, which is configured to atomize a liquid into droplets using a gas. The injection device has a body with walls defining a recess, a liquid inlet orifice being formed laterally in the walls, and a gas injection assembly in which there is formed a passage for the circulation of gas between a gas inlet orifice at one end of the recess and a gas outlet orifice situated inside the recess. The assembly defines, with the walls of the body, a space for the circulation of liquid from the liquid inlet orifice to the constriction. The walls of the body define a constriction having a throat, downstream of the gas outlet orifice, and the injection device is arranged in such a way that the stream of gas at the outlet orifice covers a wall portion in close proximity to the throat.
