yors12016 Venturi eect - Wikipedia Venturi effect From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ‘The Venturi effect is the reduction in fluid pressure that results when a fluid flows through a constricted section (or choke) of a pipe. The Venturi effect is named after bean Giovanni Battista Venturi (1746-1822), an Italian physicist. T i Contents = 1 Background ‘The pressure in the first measuring tube (1) is = 1.1 Choked flow higher than at the second (2), and the fluid speed at = 2 Experimental apparatus "1" is lower than at "2", because the cross-sectional = 2.1 Venturi tubes area at "1" is greater than at "2", = 2.2 Orifice plate 3 Instrumentation and measurement = 3.1 Flow rate = 3.2 Differential pressure 4 Examples 5 See also 6 References 7 External links Background In fluid dynamies, a fluid’s velocity must increase as it passes through a constriction in accord with the principle of mass continuity, while its static pressure must decrease in accord with the principle of conservation of mechanical energy. Thus any gain in kinetic energy a fluid may accrue due to its increased velocity through a constriction is balanced by a drop in pressure. By measuring the change in pressure, the flow rate can be determined, as in various flow measurement devices such as venturi meters, venturi nozzles and orifice plates, Referring to the diagram to the right, using Bernoulli's equation in the special case of steady, incompressible, inviscid flows (such as the flow of water or other liquid, or low speed flow of gas) along a streamline, the theoretical pressure drop at the constriction is given by: ri- p= 2 (of 02) A flow of air through a venturi meter, showing the columns connected in a manometer and partially filed with water. The meter is “read” as a differential pressure head in em or inches of water. Flow in a Venturi tube where p is the density of the fluid, » is the (slower) fluid velocity where the pipe is wider, wy is the (faster) fluid velocity where the pipe is narrower (as seen in the figure). Choked flow hitps:fon wikipodia.orgiwikiVentur_ffect 118sorsv2016 Venturi effet - Wikipadia The limiting case of the Venturi effect is when a fluid reaches the state of choked flow, where the fluid velocity approaches the local speed of sound. When a fluid system is in a state of choked flow, a further decrease in the downstream pressure environment will not lead to an increase in the mass flow rate. However, mass flow rate for a compressible fluid can increase with increased upstream pressure, which will increase the density of the fluid through the constriction (though the velocity will remain constant). This is the principle of operation of a de Laval nozzle. Increasing source temperature will also increase the local sonic velocity, thus allowing for increased mass flow rate but only if the nozzle area is also increased to compensate for the resulting decrease in density. Experimental apparatus Venturi tubes The simplest apparatus, as shown in the photograph and diagram, is a tubular setup known as a Venturi tube or simply a venturi. Fluid flows through a length of pipe of varying diameter. To avoid undue aerodynamic drag, a Venturi tube typically has an entry cone of 30 degrees and an exit cone of 5 degrees. Venturi tubes are used in processes where permanent pressure loss is not tolerable and where maximum accuracy is needed in case of highly viscous liquids. Venturi tube demonstration apparatus built out of PVC pipe and operated with a vacuum pump Orifice plate Venturi tubes are more expensive to construct than a simple orifice plate which uses the same principle as tubular scheme, but the orifice plate causes significantly more permanent energy loss." Instrumentation and measurement ‘Venturis are used in industrial applications and in scientific laboratories for measuring the flow rate of liquids. Flow rate A venturi can be used to measure the volumetric flow rate, Q. Since Q= 1A, = Ap ri-m= 23-0) then A venturi can also be used to mix a liquid with a gas. Ifa pump forces the liquid through a tube connected to a system consisting of a venturi to increase the liquid speed (the diameter decreases), a short piece of tube with a small hole in it, and last a venturi that decreases speed (so the pipe gets wider again), the gas will be sucked in through the small hole because of changes in pressure. At the end of the system, a mixture of liquid and gas will appear. See aspirator and pressure head for discussion of this type of siphon. hitps:fon wikipodia.orgiwikiVentur_ffect 215toisr20t8 Venturi eet - Wipeda Differential pressure ‘As fluid flows through a venturi, the expansion and compression of the fluids cause the pressure inside the venturi to change. This principle can be used in metrology for gauges calibrated for differential pressures. This type of pressure measurement may be ‘more convenient, for example, to measure fuel or combustion pressures in jet or rocket engines. The first large-scale Venturi meters to measure liquid flows were developed by Clemens Herschel who used them to measure small and large flows of water and wastewater beginning at the end of the 19th century.!) Examples The Venturi effect may be observed or used in the following: = Cargo eduetors on oil product and chemical ship tankers 1 Inspirators that mix air and flammable gas in grills, gas stoves, Bunsen bumers and airbrushes = Water aspirators that produce a partial vacuum using the kinetic energy from the faucet water pressure = Steam siphons using the kinetic energy from the steam pressure to create a partial vacuum = Atomizers that disperse perfume or spray paint (ie, from a spray gun) = Carburetors that use the effect to suck gasoline into an engine's intake air stream = Wine aerators, used to infuse air into wine as it is poured into a glass = The capillaries of the human circulatory system, where it indicates aortic regurgitation = Aortic insufficiency is a chronic heart condition that occurs when the aortic vaive's initial large stroke volume is released and the Venturi effect draws the walls together, which obstructs blood flow, which leads to a pulsus bisferiens. = Protein skimmers (filtration devices for saltwater aquaria) = In automated pool cleaners that use pressure-side water flow to collect sediment and debris «= The barrel of the modern-day clarinet, which uses a reverse taper to speed the air down the tube, enabling better tone, response and intonation = Compressed air operated industrial vacuum cleaners = Venturi scrubbers used to clean flue gas emissions * Injectors (also called ejectors) used to add chlorine gas to water treatment chlorination systems = Steam injectors use the Venturi effect and the latent heat of evaporation to deliver feed water to a steam locomotive boiler. = Sand blasters used to draw fine sand in and mix it with air = Emptying bilge water from a moving boat through a small waste gate in the hull—the air pressure inside the moving boat is greater than the water sliding by beneath = A scuba diving regulator to assist the flow of air once it starts flowing = In recoilless rifles to decrease the recoil of firing = Ventilators = The diffuser on an automobile = Large cities where wind is forced between buildings - the gap between the Twin Towers of the original World Trade Center was an extreme example of the pheonomenon, which made the ground level plaza notoriously windswept.1 In fact, some gusts were so high that pedestrian travel had to be aided by ropes,{41 = In windy mountain passes, resulting in erroneous pressure altimeter readings) A pair of venturi tubes on a light aircraft, used to provide airflow for air-driven gyroscopic instruments hitps:fon wikipodia.orgiwikiVentur_ffect 35sorsv2016 Venturi effet - Wikipadia = The leadpipe of a trombone, affecting the timbre = Foam proportioners used to induct fire fighting foam concentrate into fire protection systems = Trompe air compressors to entrain air into a falling column of water The Bernoulli Principle and its corollary, the Venturi effect, are essential to aerodynamic as well as hydrodynamic design concepts. Airfoil and hydrofoil designs to lift and steer air and water vessels (airplanes, ships and submarines) are derived from applications of the Bernouoli Principle and the Venturi effect, as are the instruments that measure rate of movement through the air or water (velocity indicators). Stability indication and control mechanisms such as gyroscopic altitude indicators and fuel metering devices, such as carburetors, function as a result of gas or fluid pressure differentials that create suction as demonstrated and measurable by gas/fluid pressure and velocity equations derived from the Bernoulli Principle and the Venturi Effect. ‘A simple way to demonstrate the Venturi effect is to squeeze and release a flexible hose in which fluid is flowing: the partial vacuum produced in the constriction is sufficient to keep the hose collapsed, Venturi tubes are also used to measure the speed of a fluid, by measuring pressure changes at different segments of the device. Placing a liquid in a U-shaped tube and connecting the ends of the tubes to both ends of a Venturi is all that is needed. When the fluid flows though the Venturi the pressure in the two ends of the tube will differ, forcing the liquid to the "low pressure" side. The amount of that move can be calibrated to the speed of the fluid flow."
