German term
Fluidisierungspilz
German to English
Tech/Engineering
Engineering: Industrial
additive manufacturing, plastic and metal powders
It's in a list of parts, so little context. Managed to find a picture of one on the Internet: they are, as the name suggests, roughly mushroom-shaped. Have called them "fluidiser attachments" for the want of anything better.

Fluidization Mushroom
I found this reference from an AIR BLASTERS manufacturer with the term "Fluidization Mushroom".

: "Mushroom" as a noun is not an accepted engineering term...

: The cited reference neither mentions nor relates to "fluidization"/"fluidisation", and merely contains valves with "mushroom"-shaped caps or handles. I see negligible evidence, so far, that the proposed term is used by native speakers of English.

: Sorry, I think you may be confused about the meaning of "mesh" in the academic articles cited. They're not referring to a physical grid of metal/plastic/etc.. Rather, they're referring to the computational arrangement of subregions used for calculation.

"Fluidisation nozzles:
In most cases, they are shaped like a mushroom with a circular cap."

D. I. Verrelli
: "Fluidisation nozzle"/"Fluidization nozzle" is OK, but I am not at all convinced, yet, that "mushroom nozzle" is a term used by native speakers. https://www.bing.com/search?q=+"mushroom nozzle" fluidisatio... Can optionally prefix "mushroom-shaped".
