A device for producing an aerosol is provided that includes a gas infeed
line, an aerosol container, a plurality of nozzles, a differential
pressure sensor, a plurality of valves, and a control unit. The plurality
of nozzles are located within the aerosol container, and are in fluid
communication with the gas infeed line. The differential pressure sensor
determines the difference between a first pressure within the gas infeed
line, and a second pressure within the aerosol container. The plurality
of valves are in fluid communication with the gas infeed line. The
control unit is in communication with the plurality of valves. The
plurality of nozzles are controllable independent of one another, using
the valves. The control unit determines and sets a combination of the
plurality of nozzles, using a signal from the differential pressure
sensor, to substantially maintain the second pressure within the aerosol
container at a predetermined level.
