Convergent means the available area decreases as we move forward and divergent is the opposite. There is no other exotic meaning in aircraft's.
A convergent-divergent nozzle is generally used in steam turbines. This is because it drives generators in producing electricity with the use of turbine rotors with curved axes.
In case of venturi meter, at the diverging section mach number is less than 1. however in diverging section of a nozzle mach number is greater than 1.
Because the fluid is allowed to expand in the nozzle it increases velocity to fill in the voids created by the shape of the nozzle. The convergent point of the nozzle acts like a bottleneck trying to slow the fluid and compress it into the reduced crosssection of the nozzle. As it leaves the minimum crosssection it expands into the divergent spaces of the nozzle increasing in velocity as it expands. ++_+ No: it gains velocity through the convergence but in the diverging section, trades velocity for pressure.
It is the height, width and length of a jet engine.

Convergent.
convergent boundaries collide but divergent boundaries move away from each other.
convergent boundaries collide but divergent boundaries move away from each other.
Convergent boundry
Underwater volcanoes and mountains can form at both convergent and divergent boundaries.
The Mariana Trench is a convergent plate boundary.
divergent, transform and convergent
Two paths which are convergent will come together in the distance. Two paths which are divergent will get further and further apart in the distance.
why lenght of divergent cone is larger than convergent cone in venturi meter
Convergent nozzle indicates nozzles will converge with an end closing together at the end divergent nozzles increase size at the end. If air flows in this direction: ---> Convergent nozzle > Divergent nozzle <

Vesuvius is associated with a convergent boundary between the African Plate and the Eurasian Plate.
