I thought the carberator did this?

• andylynch 4y ago
  Yes, but a key development in carburettor design was an 1880s patent by Maybach and Daimler, based on the principles of an atomiser as used for perfume.

    Steam locomotives and other steam boilers used the same principle (Bernoulli). Did Daimler and Maybach say they took inspiration from perfume atomizers? Because it would make more sense if theyt took inspiration from steam engine's injectors.

    There are fuel injection patents from the 1870's

  Both perfume bottles and the carberator use Bernoulli's principle, which was published in 1738[1]. I'm not sure whether Bernoulli developed this for perfume bottles, but I doubt it. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli%27s_principle https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli%27s_principle
