Abstract: A rectifying member capable of improving a collision force of a jet fluid, and a nozzle. A rectifying member includes rectifying elements each having a tubular casing and a division wall structure formed in the casing; the division wall structure includes partition walls, and has a circumferential division wall group being adjacent in a circumferential direction of an inner wall of the casing and having an extending partition wall, and an inside division wall group in an inside region of the fluid flow path.

Abstract: A nozzle orifice of a nozzle (1) includes a tapered segment (16) extending from an elliptical discharge orifice (15) and having a taper angle ? of 30 to 80°, and a large-diameter segment (18) continuing with the tapered segment. The ratio of the inner diameter of large-diameter segment (18) relative to the minor diameter of the discharge orifice (15) is not less than 3 and less than 7. Also, the discharge how from the nozzle spreads in a single direction (width direction) within a plane perpendicular to the central axis of the nozzle and the erosion thickness angle is 1.5 to 3° in the direction (thickness direction), perpendicular to the width direction. Such a descaling nozzle enables that scale is removed efficiently at low pressure and/or low flow rate while restraining the cooling of a steel plate.
