Abstract

A nozzle (10) for producing a flat spray pattern, the nozzle comprising a fluid passageway terminating in an end wall having an outlet aperture (20), the fluid passageway having at least one deflector (3, 4) that deflects the fluid towards the aperture; and adjustable means (21, 22) to vary the cross-section of the aperture, and Snowmaking equipment comprising at least one nozzle of the above kind, the nozzle being inclined upwardly to, in use, project a plume of water droplets, the nozzle being positioned adjacent a jet of compressed air, the variation in the cross-section of the aperture reflecting the characteristics of the plume.
