Abstract
An oil mist separator for a crankcase ventilation system of an internal combustion engine may include a nozzle device having a plurality of nozzles. The plurality of nozzles may each have a nozzle outlet. An impact wall may be disposed opposite to the plurality of nozzles and may be covered with a separation material. A distance may be configured between the plurality of nozzles and the separation material, which is reduced compared to a surrounding region. The plurality of nozzles may project towards the separation material and thereby reduce the distance of the nozzle outlet of the plurality of nozzles to the separation material compared to the surrounding region.
