IIRC the Bernoulli equation relates the speed of a fluid to it's drop in pressure, assuming density and temperature are unchanged. The Venturi effect is when you constrict a fluid stream, causing the fluid speed to increase so the pressure drops. A jet of air is using entrainment to transfer momentum to the ambient air mass, and may be higher or lower pressure than ambient depending on the nozzle orifice. Basically, this video is showing a whole bunch of physical effects!

In the sawdust (injection) pump, the compressed air pushes air out of the top section of the cylinder thereby reducing the pressure in the lower section, as you describe. It operates on the principle of induced current, not the Venturi effect (there is no Venturi tube). Likewise for the hose in the bucket. The flame thrower is an atomizer nozzle. While some atomizers use a Venturi tube, this one doesn't and relies solely on the Bernoulli effect.

The Venturi effect is shown here. You have to have a high moving air stream for the Venturi effect to even take place hence the air compressor. Take the paper towel roll in the first part of video as the restriction or the narrow part in a closed tube system and the surrounding air around it as the larger tube that you described. The same principle is applied here.

What you would have to do is downsize the size of the suction hose going to the insulation to create more vacuum force. You could make a venturi out of PVC pipe, and try the air from reversing a large vacuum, but I think you would most likely need compressed air to do it correctly.

Since your spray gun hose (straw) is placed in front of the compressed air nozzle, I would argue that the drop in pressure is caused by the Bernoulli Effect - fluids in an area moving faster than the the surrounding area possess less pressure. Since the air moving across the top of the straw is moving so quickly, the pressure drops and causes suction through the straw. Granted, I was a music major and my knowledge of the Bernoulli Effect is limited to its effect on vocal folds! Also granted, I had never heard of the Venturi Effect until just now. Thanks for learning me so good!

@prowler19929 жыл бұрын
Matthias Wandel Matt Wallace The Venturi effect is a subset/example of the Bernoulli Principal. Either can be explained by particle replacement or the pressure/speed-of-flow relationship. Matthias, going off of Matt's explanation, we do experience pressure (not vacumm) from the air that is not moving ~1 atm of pressure. That applied pressure is actually quite important for biological functions! Some people can actually feel pressure differences caused by storm systems because the pressure inside their body is not equalized properly and then the pressure differential is then felt as a force on their joints, for example.
@Wren69919 жыл бұрын
Matthias Wandel Bernoulli's equation is a relation between speed and pressure along a single streamline, that is, a path taken by particles through the fluid. It's not valid in this case because Andrew is trying to compare different streamlines, and because the flow is unsteady. (In fact, the pressure in the jet is more or less atmospheric!) The suction is (as you stated) due to the deceleration of the jet due to turbulence, which causes a rising pressure gradient. Since the air at the far end of the tube is atmospheric, the air at the jet end is must be below atmospheric pressure, hence suction. Your friendly neighbourhood engineering student
@CoolRiffz9 жыл бұрын
+Matt Wallace Bernoulli: Fluid pressure is inverse to velocity. Venturi: Fluid pressure in a pipe reduces in a constriction. Since we are talking in very oversimplified terms (compared to actually modeling this with CFD and being realistic about what is happening here), the process would be: #1. The ID of the pipe is expanded when it exits the nozzle into the paper towel roll - most directly relevant to the Venturi principle which relates fluid pressure to pipe ID. #2. The high velocity fluid pushes out the air inside the paper towel roll, and this high velocity compared to the static atmospheric air creates a pocket of low pressure (Bernoulli- ish), which creates a pressure differential that moves air up to fill behind it. That relationship is also the result of the conservation of mass (mass flux in needs to equal mass flux out, the high velocity air going out x the cross sectional area needs to be equal to the velocity of the air entering x the same cross section). It is probably best to phrase this system in the context of the conservation of mass because applying Bernoullis has a lot of requirements, which they would not discuss in music. For example, Bernoullis only applies to inviscid flow, but all fluid is viscous so it will have viscous forces along the inner walls of the paper towel (in the boundary layer). So Bernoullis could only apply outside the boundary layer, and in a pipe this small the boundary layer is significant. Source: Fluid mechanics is a subset of mech engr, I have BSME, MSME
@fitty779 жыл бұрын
+CoolRiffz Not sure if i understand (english is not my native language...), but Bernoulli principle can be related with limitations in flow, derived from pressure drop (that comes from viscous limitations) and pressure gains (inputs, pumps, for example). So you can apply in every system, taking in account the real limitations on a system.

Ronin, the Venturi effect describes how fluid accelerates when traveling from a larger area to a smaller one via conservation of matter. The Bernoulli effect describes the pressure difference between fluids with different speeds. Therefore, it is the Bernoulli effect that is drawing in the surrounding air, not the Venturi.
@martyjoseph95072 жыл бұрын
A question for you if I may. I'm wondering if you're riding a small carbureted vehicle up a hill that it cannot accelerate on, is it counter productive to hold the throttle wide open versus just open enough that the engine can fully use? I've always wondered if the airflow would draw the correct amount of gasoline naturally or if it's better to have the jet needle slightly blocking the main jet and restricting gasoline so the mixture is not too rich. I'm talking about the point where the throttle is equal to engine output versus wide open where you can definitely hear the vacuum. My understanding of the theory is the fuel will correctly mix with air based on air speed alone regardless of throttle position above current engine demand. Hopefully I'm clear enough. The furnace seems to support my thoughts though it's a bit reversed.

As Matt Wallace pointed out, you have confounded Bernoulli's principle with the Venturi effect. Bernoulli's principle is that pressure decreases when velocity of a fluid increases. The Venturi effect is a consequence of Bernoulli's principle in the special case of a fluid flowing through a constricted pipe. It states that a fluid that does not compress will lose fluid pressure at the constriction. It results because the fluid must move faster in a narrow pipe than a wide pipe to move an equivalent volume which leads to a lower pressure by Bernoulli's principle. You provided some very neat demonstrations of Bernoulli's principle, and a couple of them may incidentally also involve the Venturi effect, but Matt Wallace is correct, this video should be titled "Bernoulli's Principle."

There are airplanes that have pumps with no moving parts called ejector pumps (or eductor pumps, or jet pumps) that operate on the principle shown in the video. Some fuel is diverted from the engine-driven high pressure pump, plumbed all the way to the tank where a small volume is ejected inside the tank through a narrow nozzle at high speed. A larger volume of fuel is drawn out of the tank and taken back to the engine - where it ends up going through the engine pump again. Any given parcel of fuel may actually circulate a few times around this loop before finally being pumped into the engine.

As pointed out 5 years ago by donepearce and 3 years ago by me, this is predominantly entrainment (viscosity causing inter-layer 'friction'). When you Say turbulent mixing, you are the closest to the real science. .. The powder is "sucked" into the tube by the atmospheric pressure accelerating the air into the lower pressure in the tube. That lower pressure is caused by the entrained air moving out lowering the pressure upstream from the high speed nozzle. It is precisely the same thing used in ejector pumps. sigh...

A real venturi action is helped a lot by a narrowing passage.. like all the carburators have. The tube narrows and when it enlarges again there is a drop of air pressure and an increase of air speed.. The Homelite Shop Service Manual says: "Carburator design is based on the venturi principle which is that a gas or a liquid flowing through a neckde-down section ( venturi) in a passage undergoes an increased in speed and a decrease in pressure as compared to its speed and pressure in the full section of the passage.
