Abstract: A single piece atomizing nozzle has a body having one end formed with an inlet and the other end formed with a ring, which has an outlet. A passage is formed in an axial direction of the body, and has two ends respectively connected to the inlet and the outlet. A rotor is rotatably disposed in the passage, and a leakage-stopping assembly is disposed in the passage and between the rotor and the inlet. Also, a stopping mechanism is formed or disposed at the inlet to prevent the leakage-stopping assembly from escaping from the inlet. Alternatively, a water output block is disposed on the ring to prevent the leakage-stopping assembly from escaping from the ring. Thus, the effects of the simple structure, the small size and the lighted weight can be obtained.

Abstract: A fracturing jet nozzle assembly has nested telescoping sections that each have nozzles in them. The outermost stage makes for a large perforation as it and the adjacent stages begin extension. As the stage adjacent the outermost stage continues to extend into the perforation and reaches maximum extension the nozzles in the outermost stage are cut off from fracturing fluid flow and that flow is in turn redirected to the remaining stages that have not yet fully extended. The innermost stage preferably does not get cut off from jet fluid flow even at its full extension.

Abstract: A method of designing a fuel nozzle of a gas turbine engine to reduce fretting thereof during use, including establishing an initial nozzle design, determining a first natural frequency of that design and a running frequency range of the gas turbine engine, and increasing a first transverse dimension of the stem member of the nozzle across a length of a portion thereof adjacent the inlet end until the first natural frequency of the nozzle is outside the running range, while a second transverse dimension of the portion remains at least substantially unchanged across the length thereof.
Abstract: A reverse-flow nozzle generates a cavitating and/or pulsed jet of pressurized liquid. The nozzle includes a body having an inlet for receiving a stream of liquid and a main channel through the body extending from the inlet to an outlet. A flow-reversing channel in the nozzle diverts a portion of the liquid from the main channel to a point downstream of a mixing chamber. The channel returns the diverted liquid back into the mixing chamber as a reverse-flow jet relative to a main stream of liquid flowing toward the outlet. This reverse-flow jet interacts with the main stream to generate the cavitating jet that discharges from the outlet. By angling the reverse-flow jet relative to the main stream, a naturally pulsed jet may be generated.
