Abstract: A special effect device for producing a simulated flame effect includes a plurality of discharge nozzles, a source of compressed air, a source of pressurized water, and a control device for supplying the compressed air and the compressed water to the discharge nozzles for proportioning the compressed air and water such that each discharge nozzles creates a plume of water vapor, consisting of micron sized water droplets. A plurality of light sources configured to deliver a mixture of colored lighting, is disposed in proximity to the plume and directed thereto, such that the light mixing and reflecting from the plume creates a simulated flame effect.
