Jet: fast gas pulls liquid up, then the baffle sorts droplets.
Course reference

Jet nebulizer operating flow taught here: 6–8 L/min. Ultrasonic nebulizers use a piezoelectric element and can produce high output with heat sensitivity. Vibrating-mesh nebulizers move liquid through micro-apertures and do not require compressed gas.
