Abstract
An outlet nozzle for centrifuge drums is disclosed. The outlet nozzle includes a nozzle body which has an inlet channel extending axially therein and an outlet channel extending at an obtuse angle to the inlet channel. The outlet channel has an inlet opening and an outlet opening, where the diameter of the outlet channel increases at least in certain portions. The point on the outlet channel which is narrowest in terms of the cross-section is formed by the inlet opening itself and the cross-section of the outlet channel is not reduced at any point over the axial length of the outlet channel in the outlet direction.
