Influence of variation in converging section and orifice plane on the performance of venturi scrubber by using CFD

Design of short Venturi flow meters for incompressible and isothermal flow applications

“…Previous studies have indicated that the β-ratio, which defines the ratio of throat diameter to inlet diameter, plays a significant role in determining performance. In a study investigating the effect of variations in the converging section on Venturi scrubber performance, Jawaria Ahad et al [ 21 ] found that in addition to the β-ratio, convergent cone angle and divergent cone angle also exert a noteworthy influence on Venturi performance. The results of their study are also confirmed by several other studies (e.g.…”

Effects of the Nozzle Location on Hydrodynamic Properties of a VenturiType Scrubber

“…In the force feed scrubber, water is supplied to the throat or converging section via a pump from a water reservoir. However, in the self-priming type, the water automatically enters the throat via orifices due to the pressure gradient between the hydrostatic pressure of a liquid and the static pressure of the gas at the throat of the venture [5]. The design of the venture scrubber causes the separation of contaminants from the gas using the liquid sent to the scrubber as a jet.…”
