Abstract:
A method for changing the a swirling motion of a stream of fluid in a nozzle comprised of a nozzle body (1) with a swirl chamber (3) having an outlet, comprising:dividing a total fluid stream (FG) is divided in two partial streams wherein least a through-put of one of the partial streams is variable; allocating each of said partial streams to a tangential inlet channel (4a, 4b), said inlet channels being different in their cross sectional areas at a point of connection with the swirl chamber (3); and admitting the partial streams into the swirl chamber (3) through said tangential inlet channels, wherein a the swirling motion produced in the swirl chamber is not coupled to a total through-put of the stream of fluid, wherein the division and allocation of the total stream of fluid to the individual partial streams received in the swirl chamber (3) is carried out under operating conditions independent of the through-put for realizing different control possibilities.
