Liquid Inlet Nozzle: Flow Capacity 5-500 L/min

Q: What maintenance is required for liquid inlet nozzles?

Regular inspection for erosion/corrosion, cleaning to prevent buildup, and verification of flow characteristics. Recommended maintenance interval: 6-12 months depending on fluid properties.

Q: Can these nozzles handle abrasive fluids?

Standard 316L nozzles are suitable for most applications. For abrasive fluids, ceramic-lined or tungsten carbide variants are recommended to extend service life.

Q: How do I select the correct orifice size?

Orifice selection depends on required flow rate, fluid viscosity, and pressure drop limitations. Use the formula Q = C_d × A × √(2ΔP/ρ) where C_d is discharge coefficient (typically 0.6-0.9 for these nozzles).

Component Specifications

Definition

A specialized fluid inlet component designed to regulate and direct liquid flow into vaporization chambers, featuring optimized geometry for pressure distribution, minimal turbulence, and precise metering. Engineered to withstand thermal cycling and chemical exposure while maintaining dimensional stability under operational conditions.

Working Principle

Utilizes Bernoulli's principle and controlled orifice geometry to convert pressure energy into kinetic energy, creating a stable liquid stream with minimal droplet formation. The nozzle's internal contours accelerate fluid while reducing shear forces, ensuring uniform distribution across the vaporization surface.

Materials

316L stainless steel (ASTM A240) with electropolished interior surface (Ra ≤ 0.4 μm). Alternative materials: Hastelloy C-276 for corrosive applications, ceramic-lined for abrasive fluids.
