Druckdüse

Druckdüse is a German term that translates to "pressure nozzle" in English. It refers to a device or component designed to control the flow and pressure of a fluid or gas. Druckdüsen are commonly found in a variety of applications where precise dispensing or forceful expulsion of a substance is required.

The fundamental principle behind a Druckdüse is to constrict the passage through which a fluid or gas flows, thereby increasing its velocity and potentially its pressure upon exiting. This can be achieved through various designs, such as a tapered opening or a precisely machined orifice. The specific shape and size of the Druckdüse are critical in determining the characteristics of the output stream, including its spray pattern, droplet size, and velocity.

Applications for Druckdüsen are extensive. In industrial settings, they are used in spraying systems for paints, coatings, and agricultural chemicals, as well as in fuel injection systems for engines. In everyday life, they can be found in garden hoses, showerheads, and aerosol cans. The functionality of a Druckdüse is essential for tasks ranging from cleaning and lubrication to material application and atomization. The materials used in their construction vary depending on the fluid being handled and the operating conditions, with common choices including metals, plastics, and ceramics.
