The formula to calculate the output velocity (Vout) is:
\[ V_{out} = \frac{A_{in}}{A_{out}} \times V_{in} \]
Where:
Let's say the input area (\( A_{in} \)) is 0.05 m², the output area (\( A_{out} \)) is 0.02 m², and the input velocity (\( V_{in} \)) is 3 m/s. Using the formula:
\[ V_{out} = \frac{0.05}{0.02} \times 3 \]
We get:
\[ V_{out} = 2.5 \times 3 = 7.5 \]
So, the output velocity (\( V_{out} \)) is 7.5 m/s.
The Venturi effect is a fluid dynamics phenomenon that occurs when a fluid flows through a constricted section of a pipe. As the fluid enters the narrower section, its velocity increases and its pressure decreases. This effect is used in various applications, such as in carburetors and aspirators, to create a low-pressure area and induce the flow of a secondary fluid.
