2. Pressure washing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_washing

   A pressure washer is used to remove old paint from a boat. Patio flagstones being pressure washed using a rotary nozzle. Pressure washing or power washing is the use of high-pressure water spray to remove loose paint, mold, grime, dust, mud, and dirt from surfaces and objects such as buildings, vehicles and concrete surfaces.

3. Spray nozzle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_nozzle

   Spray nozzles can have one or more outlets; a multiple outlet nozzle is known as a compound nozzle. Multiple outlets on nozzles are present on spray balls, which have been used in the brewing industry for many years for cleaning casks and kegs. [2] Spray nozzles range from those for heavy duty industrial uses to light duty spray cans or spray ...

4. Spray (liquid drop) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_(liquid_drop)

   Selecting a nozzle based on the pattern and other spray characteristics that are required generally yields good results. [5] Since spray nozzles are designed to perform under many different spraying conditions, more than one nozzle may meet the requirements for a given application. Surfaces may be sprayed with any pattern shape.

5. Nozzle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nozzle

   Increasing the nozzle pressure ratio further will not increase the throat Mach number above one. Downstream (i.e. external to the nozzle) the flow is free to expand to supersonic velocities; however, Mach 1 can be a very high speed for a hot gas because the speed of sound varies as the square root of

6. Nozzle and flapper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nozzle_and_flapper

   The example shown is pneumatic. At sub-millimeter distances, a small movement of the flapper plate results in a large change in flow. The nozzle is fed from a chamber which is in turn fed by a restriction, so changes of flow result in changes of chamber pressure. The nozzle diameter must be larger than the restriction orifice in order to work. [2]

7. Propelling nozzle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propelling_nozzle

   A nozzle operates according to the Venturi effect to bring the exhaust gasses to ambient pressure, while forming them into a propulsive jet; if the pressure upstream of the nozzle is high enough, the flow will reach sonic speed . The role of the nozzle in back-pressuring the engine is explained below.

8. Diffuser (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuser_(thermodynamics)

   A diffuser is "a device for reducing the velocity and increasing the static pressure of a fluid passing through a system”. [1] The fluid's static pressure rise as it passes through a duct is commonly referred to as pressure recovery. In contrast, a nozzle is used to increase the discharge velocity and lower the pressure of a fluid passing ...

9. de Laval nozzle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Laval_nozzle

   A de Laval nozzle (or convergent-divergent nozzle, CD nozzle or con-di nozzle) is a tube which is pinched in the middle, with a rapid convergence and gradual divergence. It is used to accelerate a compressible fluid to supersonic speeds in the axial (thrust) direction, by converting the thermal energy of the flow into kinetic energy .
