The venturi principle, used in carburetors when we had them, is fairly simple to understand. Air, like water, seeks the path of least resistance in
its flow. When it comes up against an obstruction, like a wall, it either has to go around it or through it if there is a hole for it to go through.
Since a larger volume is hitting the wall than can go through the hole at the same time, the air tries to push itself through the hole faster in
order to move more volume. |
