The main reason I developed this is for that reason. Typical misting strategy is to spray single nozzle coarse mist, across the conduit. That just agglomerates and turns into a stream on the opposite wall of the conduit, a river that kills the leading edge of the blades.
This is 8 smaller nozzles, much smaller droplet size, airstream entrained fog, which will not hurt the blades.
This design has been 2 years in the making. The original was a single nozzle located in front of the compressor. This evolved a lot. The latest challenge was making it un-restrictive to 1000 cfm airflow on CFD analysis.
