Abstract
A wellbore downhole tool, comprising: a nozzle assembly, the nozzle assembly includes a nozzle including: a cylindrically-shaped tube with a substantially uniform outer diameter across substantially an entire height of the nozzle, at least one retaining body opening located in an outer wall of the nozzle; a holding body including: a conduit, the conduit sized to fit the nozzle there-through, an alignment opening extending from an outer surface of the holding body to the conduit; and a retaining body sized to fit within the alignment opening of the holding body and to contact the retaining body opening of the nozzle when the nozzle is inserted in the conduit such that the cylindrically-shaped tube of the nozzle cannot rotate or move further in or out of the conduit. A method of assembling the wellbore downhole tool is also described.
