Abstract
A vaporizer comprises disks each including an aperture at a central portion thereof. A hollow pipe having apertures for permitting radial outflow of a liquid extends through the aperture of each of the discs so as to form a stack of the discs. A resilient member applies a biasing force to the discs, and structure applies a force, via fluid control, against the biasing force to thereby remove the biasing force from the discs. Liquid in the hollow pipe is adapted to be delivered from the apertures to spaces between the discs and vaporized in the spaces between the discs.
