What is Air Delivery?
The process of transporting air through a system to achieve ventilation or other purposes
Air delivery is crucial in HVAC systems to ensure proper air circulation.
What is a Venturi?
A device that reduces fluid pressure and increases fluid velocity by constricting the flow area
The Venturi effect is commonly used in various applications, including carburetors and fluid measurement.
What are the components of a Venturi meter?
- Converging section
- Throat
- Diverging section
- Pressure taps
These components work together to measure flow rates by analyzing pressure differences.
Fill in the blank: A Venturi meter is used to measure _______.
[fluid flow rates]
True or False: The Venturi effect can be utilized to create suction.
True
The reduction in pressure in the throat of the Venturi can create a suction effect that draws in additional fluid.
