    Abstract: A sensor cleaning nozzle includes a nozzle housing including a first end and a second end defining a head portion, and a nozzle system arranged within the nozzle housing. The nozzle system includes a fluid feed member including a fluid feed inlet arranged at the first end and a fluid feed outlet arranged in the head portion. A cleaning nozzle is arranged in the head portion. The cleaning nozzle includes a nozzle inlet is fluidically connected to the fluid feed outlet, a nozzle outlet is exposed at the head portion, and a nozzle bore extends between the nozzle inlet and the nozzle outlet. The nozzle bore converges from the nozzle inlet toward the nozzle outlet along a first nozzle axis and diverges from the nozzle inlet toward the nozzle outlet along a second nozzle axis.

    Abstract: A compressor includes a compressor impeller configured to rotate about an axis of rotation as intake gases flow along the compressor impeller. The compressor impeller includes an inducer and an exducer. The compressor impeller defines a first impeller end at the inducer and a second impeller end at the exducer. The second impeller end extends along a radial axis. The compressor further includes a compressor housing encasing the compressor impeller. The compressor housing defines a compressor volute. The compressor housing partially defines a diffuser in fluid communication with the compressor volute. The diffuser is elongated along a diffuser axis. The diffuser axis is obliquely angled relative to the axis of rotation. The diffuser axis is obliquely angled relative to the radial axis to minimize a turbulence of the intake gases flowing from the diffuser to the compressor volute.

    Abstract: A fluid curtain system for a vehicle mounted sensor includes a sensor member including a first end, a second end, and a sensing surface. The sensing surface is arranged between the first end and the second end. A fluid curtain generator is arranged at one of the first end and the second end of the sensor member. The fluid curtain generator is operable to generate and direct multiple streams of fluid at the sensor, the multiple streams of fluid forming a fluid curtain across the sensing surface.
