Mechanically modulated nozzles
Tesař, Václav
There are applications in which jet-generating nozzles are requested to have variable properties, responding to a mechanical input action. The paper studies nozzles with a needle - a component with tapered end inserted into the nozzle exit channel. Axial movement of the needle varies the cross-section area available for the flow. Author made laboratory and computational investigations of the simplest shape: a sharp-point cone inserted into a sharpedged, constant-diameter exit channel. Presented examples from accumulated data discuss pressure measurements: overall pressure loss, pressure distribution on the cone surface, and on surfaces of the exit channel.

Testing of Nozzles
Foldyna, Josef ; Sitek, Libor ; Ščučka, Jiří ; Klich, Jiří ; Hlaváček, Petr
Based on the request made by the company NET Ltd. Staré Město pod Sněžníkem, tests of quality of nozzles for generation of high-speed water jet were performed at the Department of material disintegration of the Institute of Geonics AS CR, v. v. i., in Ostrava. Three nozzles provided by NET were tested. The nozzles were marked as nozzle CKM – A, nozzle CKM – B, and nozzle ACMK. The nozzle quality was evaluated by the determination of their discharge coefficient at various operating pressures and by visual inspection of the quality of the nozzle and the water jet.
