Assuming you have particular, google = "pyro pack".  It's a free download of a collection of particular = projects that make fireworks and smoke.  There are smoke examples = in there which will get you started.  Actually I'll do it for = you:

It is almost 10 years old yet is still very = useful - I am just starting a new video tutorial based on one of the = projects in it=E2=80=A6 examining all of the projects in the pyro pack = is how I learned particular.
