V
Venturi
A venturi is a narrow point in a channel through which a liquid or gas flows.
Because the substance changes speed as it passes through this narrow point,
a pressure reduction occurs combined with a suction effect: the venturi effect.
Viscosity
How quickly a liquid or gas will flow. A viscous substance is one that flows
slowly.
