Abstract:
A full cone liquid spray nozzle comprising:a nozzle body having a discharge orifice at a downstream end and an inlet at an upstream end for connection to a liquid supply, a liquid flow passageway through said body communicating between said inlet and said discharge orifice, a vane disposed within said passageway upstream of said discharge orifice, said liquid flow passageway defining a whirl and mixing chamber between said vane and said discharge orifice, said vane having a frustoconical downstream end and a central orifice extending through said vane coaxial with said discharge orifice for creating and directing an axial flow stream, and said vane having at least three angled passages circumferentially disposed about said central orifice for tangentially directing a plurality of liquid flow streams which creates liquid turbulence, breakdown, and intermixing with said axial flow stream such that liquid emitted from said discharge orifice has a conical spray pattern with liquid particles distributed throughout the spray pattern.
