  2. 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 .

  3. Spiral separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiral_separator

    Typical spiral concentrators will use a slurry from about 20%-40% solids by weight, with a particle size somewhere between 0.75—1.5mm (17-340 mesh), though somewhat larger particle sizes are sometimes used. The spiral separator is less efficient at the particle sizes of 0.1—0.074mm however.

  4. DeWalt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeWalt

    DeWalt returned to NASCAR sponsorship in 2011, but on the #9 Richard Petty Motorsports Ford Fusion driven by Marcos Ambrose. This sponsorship ended after 2014, when Ambrose departed the Sprint Cup Series, with DeWalt choosing to re-unite with Kenseth, who now drove the #20 for Joe Gibbs Racing , sponsoring six races in 2015, ten races in 2016 ...

  5. Nozzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nozzle

    A nozzle is a device designed to control the direction or characteristics of a fluid flow (specially to increase velocity) as it exits (or enters) an enclosed chamber or pipe. A nozzle is often a pipe or tube of varying cross sectional area, and it can be used to direct or modify the flow of a fluid ( liquid or gas ).

  6. Propelling nozzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propelling_nozzle

    Overexpansion occurs when the exit area is too big relative to the size of the afterburner, or primary, nozzle. [19] This occurred under certain conditions on the J85 installation in the T-38. The secondary or final nozzle was a fixed geometry sized for the maximum afterburner case.

  7. Venturi effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venturi_effect

    Sandblasting nozzles accelerate and air and media mixture; Bilge water can be emptied from a moving boat through a small waste gate in the hull. The air pressure inside the moving boat is greater than the water sliding by beneath. A scuba diving regulator uses the Venturi effect to assist maintaining the flow of gas once it starts flowing

  8. K-factor (fire protection) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-factor_(fire_protection)

    In fire protection engineering, the K-factor formula is used to calculate the volumetric flow rate from a nozzle. Spray nozzles can for example be fire sprinklers or water mist nozzles, hose reel nozzles, water monitors and deluge fire system nozzles.

  9. 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 ...
