English term or phrase: motive nozzle throats
In a document about an ejector.
" These particles could easily plug the motive nozzle throats."
It concerns the smallest section of the nozzle (related to venturi-effect, vacuum suction, etc).

Nozzle by itself already has various possible translations, but I can't find a satisfactory one
in this context: 'straalbuis' is for larger sizes I think, 'sproeikop'? 'tuit'? 'mondstuk'?

Explanation:
Weet niet of en hoe je motive nozzles hebt vertaald, maar misschien helpt dit je op gang.

Motive heeft hier betrekking op het stromende medium. Moeilijk te vertalen zonder er een heel verhaal van te maken. Ik zou "motive" denk ik weglaten in de vertalen en op andere stukken in de tekst duidelijk maken dat er stroming is, voor zover dat nog niet duidelijk was. Dus als vertaling van motive nozzle throats, bv. hals (doorgang, doorstroomopening) van de spuitmond (of misschien beter: spuitkop, mond is ook weer uiteinde). Lastig.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Alvast bedankt Tammo! Het is juist ook de motive nozzle waarvoor ik een passende vertaling zoek. 'Doorstroomopening', is dat niet meer van toepassing als de buis erna terug verwijdt? Hier is het een kleine opening waaruit de vloeistof spuit, vandaar tuit of mond evt.
