Claims1
A nozzle for use on the exhaust of an internal combustion engine comprising:
- a first nozzle part having an inlet end, a diverging conical section axially aligned with the inlet end, a converging conical section aligned with the diverging conical section;
- a second nozzle part axially aligned with said first nozzle part and affixed thereto at the junction between the two conical sections of the first nozzle part, the second nozzle part having a cylindrical air inlet end provided with a plurality of peripheral holes, said air inlet end surrounding and spaced from the converging conical section of the first nozzle part, a converging conical section axially aligned with said cylindrical air inlet, and a diverging conical outlet section axially aligned with said converging conical section;
- and a cylindrical tube supported axially within the first and second nozzle parts and axially extending from approximately the junction between the two conical sections of the first nozzle part to a location in the second nozzle part between the ends of the diverging conical section thereof.
