Do some flow calculations.
What's the capacity of the pump?

Make it the same size as N2 pipe that brings the N2, alternatively you may make it one size larger. For example, if the N2 line is a 2", you can also make the nozzle 2" or 3".

That should do it..

I hope you do know what size the N2 line is!
