No. If ownership/copyright is not specified, ERPS will respect the
Berne Convention, which states that unless otherwise specified by the
author, all rights are reserved to the author.

So we don't have a standard disclaimer. We're really not that formal;
come on, we're funded by pun taxes. If you post a drawing, please
include a common sense disclaimer. Use your imagination. Use common
sense. Be paranoid, have fun.
"If you are killed or injured making or using the part depicted in
this drawing, think of it as evolution in action."
"Be not stupid, lest thy machine rise up and smite thee."
"ERPS will not be responsible for anything that happens to anyone,
anywhere, for any reason, ever, so there."

The catalyst pack generates a pressure drop, which affects the nozzle.
The nozzle generates a pressure drop, which affects the catalyst pack.
