Venturi
Piping equipment featuring a constricted section that creates a “venturi effect” or the simultaneous pressure drop reduction and increased fluid velocity as the fluid passes across.
FluidFlow allows users to size these devices using flow or pressure loss sizing models to determine the required throat diameter for a specific throat length.
Alternatively, users can evaluate flow or pressure loss across a venturi with predefined throat diameter and length specifications.
