A nozzle is a device manufactured to automate the direction or potential of a fluid flow used to enter an enclosed space or pipe. A nozzle is often a pipe or tube with a variable cross-sectional area that is used to control, direct, or alter fluid flow (liquid or gas). Nozzles are widely used to regulate the stream that emerges from them in terms of flow rate, speed, direction, mass, form, and pressure. The fluid's pressure energy is lost as its velocity rises in a nozzle.
Some of the most important types that help greatly in this particular domain are as follows:
Increasing the kinetic energy of the flowing medium often comes at the price of its pressure and internal energy. There are two types of nozzles: convergent and divergent. Convergent-divergent (CD) nozzles have convergent and divergent sections, which are what de Laval nozzles are known for.
A jet exhaust generates propulsion using the energy released during fuel combustion. The hot gas exits the engine through a propelling nozzle, which accelerates the gas since it is at a greater pressure than the outside air.
For some forms of propulsion, like VASIMR, where the flow of plasma is guided by magnetic fields rather than boundaries formed of solid matter, magnetic nozzles have also been proposed.
Numerous various forms are available for vacuum cleaner nozzles. Vacuum cleaners employ vacuum nozzles.
Some nozzles are designed to create streams of a specific form. Extrusion molding, for instance, is a technique for creating lengths of metals, polymers, or other materials with a certain cross-section. Usually, this nozzle is referred to as a die.
