  • Yes, the Venturi effect can apply to both gases and liquids as both are fluids and exhibit similar behaviour. The suction concept is a good question. In general, a bigger or wider opening of the entrainment port will allow for the entrainment of more fluid. Clearly, this will only work to a point. I am not sure about building suction systems and so on as I have little knowledge of engineering. You may look at engineering or fluid dynamics texts for this information or research manufacturers.

  • well iam pleasently surprized how clear this teaching is and simply understandable

    I am kinda of excited about this study here for some reason and like to find out few things pls..

    how can you maximize the suction of the outside atmospheric air into the venturi ...

    for example..

    larger pipe size ?

    smaller venturi size?

    more smooth or rounder shape venturi?

    longer run of venturi pipe area?

    (btw does this work with gases as well as liquids)

  • Great explination! 

  • I am not sure. Unfortunately, an engineer I am not.

  • i think i need an air flow meter or something to let me know how much air is moving past i dont know. i know with headers long ones give you top end power and shot ones low end power. will changing the lenght of the venrui help? if i make a small hole in the bottem of my venturi will it help? thanks

  • i know with a car they sometime use the venturi effect with the air intake, the car factory makes things to small (to save on cost and weight of things) i know this im an auto tech, i also know changing the size of an exhaust pipe will help in many cases for better performance. my question how do i know what is to big or to small of a venturi size? what i want to do is make a more bigger one for my air intake system, how do i determine the size needed? thanks.. hope u understand what im saying.

  • hi, i have a question... if it is the case where the opening of the tube is less than 15 degree... can i say P2<P3<P1 ?? thanks

  • one more thing, What's FI02 (or O2)

  • @SMG516: FiO2 is known as the fraction of inspired oxygen. It is a measure of the percentage of oxygen in a certain gas mixture that will be inhaled by the patient.

  • @TheAncientScholar Ah huh, well, now i know everything! :D Thanks.

  • Great! this told be allot about the venturi effect and added more to what I knew about it. (It also helped with my carburettor study :p)

  • Great vid, very clear description of the princeple, helping me with a project!

  • @damokeena; I am glad you found the video helpful.

  • ok
