# Industrial Specification: Liquid Injection Nozzles

## 1. Technical Definition
Specialized nozzles designed to inject scrubbing liquid into the throat of a Venturi scrubber.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **3.5-10.5 bar (50-152 psi) at 15-45 L/min flow rate**. Failure boundary: **Cavitation occurs at vapor pressure ≤0.023 bar absolute (0.33 psi) at 25°C, erosion failure at 12.5 bar (181 psi) differential pressure**, Mechanism: **Cavitation-induced pitting from Bernoulli principle pressure drop below liquid vapor pressure, combined with abrasive wear from particulate-laden scrubbing liquid at velocities exceeding 25 m/s**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Darcy-Weisbach Pressure Drop**:

> **Primary Equation**: $\Delta P = f \cdot \frac{L}{D} \cdot \frac{\rho v^2}{2}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Critical for sizing CIP (Clean-In-Place) pump heads.

| Symbol | Variable Definition | Localized Reference |

| f | Friction Factor | Engineering Constant |
| L | Pipe Length | Engineering Constant |
| v | Velocity | Engineering Constant |

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Calcium sulfate scaling from SO2 neutralization exceeding 2.5 mm thickness | 8 | Orifice blockage reducing flow by ≥85%, causing scrubber efficiency drop below 95% particulate removal | 316L stainless steel construction with 0.8 μm surface finish, integrated ultrasonic cleaning at 40 kHz frequency |
| Thermal cycling between 20°C inlet and 180°C flue gas creating ΔT=160°C | 8 | Thermal fatigue cracking initiating at stress concentration points, propagating at 0.15 mm/1000 cycles | Inconel 625 alloy with coefficient of thermal expansion 12.8 μm/m·°C, incorporating expansion bellows with 8 mm axial movement capacity |

## 5. Engineering Risks & FAQ
- **Caution**: 
- **Caution**: 
- **Caution**: 

### Q: What materials are best for corrosive chemical applications?
**A**: For highly corrosive environments, Hastelloy C-276 and PTFE-coated steel offer superior resistance, while 316L stainless steel is ideal for moderate conditions.

### Q: How do these nozzles improve Venturi scrubber efficiency?
**A**: They optimize liquid atomization in the throat section, enhancing gas-liquid contact for more effective pollutant removal and scrubbing performance.

### Q: What maintenance is required for these injection nozzles?
**A**: Regular inspection of orifice plates for wear, checking connection fittings for leaks, and monitoring swirl chambers for clogging from particulate buildup.
