pihustusotsiku

Pihustusotsiku is an Estonian term that translates to "spray nozzle" or "spray head" in English. It refers to a device designed to atomize a liquid into a fine mist or spray. These devices are used in a wide variety of applications across different industries.

The fundamental principle behind a pihustusotsiku is to break down a liquid stream into smaller droplets. This is typically achieved by forcing the liquid through a small opening or orifice at a controlled pressure. The shape and design of the orifice, along with the fluid's properties and the applied pressure, determine the size and pattern of the spray.

Pihustusotsikud are commonly found in agricultural sprayers for applying pesticides and fertilizers, in industrial cleaning equipment, in automotive fuel injection systems, and in fire suppression systems. They are also used in everyday items such as garden sprinklers, spray paint cans, and perfume atomizers. The effectiveness of a pihustusotsiku is often measured by its spray pattern, droplet size distribution, and flow rate. Different applications require specific types of pihustusotsikud to achieve optimal performance, whether it's achieving uniform coverage, maximizing surface area for evaporation, or creating a specific impact force.
