A fire hose nozzle is a device which generates and directs a stream of water, foam, powder, or any other type of fire-extinguishing substances.

The hose nozzle is cylindrical with a continuous decrease in its size, i.e. the convergent shape.

Here the shape of the pipe nose is cylindrical and this cylindrical shape kept converging for high velocity of the fluid.

Yeah @Gzoera, Fire nose is of conical shape.
