AI Thread Summary
Reliable sources for understanding eductors in fluid dynamics include textbooks on fluid mechanics and specialized engineering websites. Calculating the size of the venturi and jets for inducing steam flow requires knowledge of Bernoulli's principle and its equation. The discussion highlights concerns about pressure differentials affecting steam condensation when using cool water jets. Suggestions for further research include exploring pressure equalization methods to prevent condensate boiling. Comprehensive resources on these topics can enhance understanding and application in practical scenarios.

Can anyone recommend a reliable source of information about eductors? I want to be able to calculate the size of the venturi and jets that I would need to induce a steam flow through the venturi with jets of water (water would be atomised through the jets). I also want to calculate the pressure differential I could create. I haven't found any information on condensing the steam through the venturi by using relatively cool water through the jets, I expect that the pressure changes interfere with the condensation process (i also think a strategically placed port from the reservoir would allow an equalisation of pressure to prevent the condensate boiling as the pressure drops) but it would be great if someone could point to some reliable information. hope someone can help.

Thread 'Is calling fictitious forces not real just about terminology?'

Hi there, im studying nanoscience at the university in Basel. Today I looked at the topic of intertial and non-inertial reference frames and the existence of fictitious forces. I understand that you call forces real in physics if they appear in interplay. Meaning that a force is real when there is the "actio" partner to the "reactio" partner. If this condition is not satisfied the force is not real. I also understand that if you specifically look at non-inertial reference frames you can...

Thread 'Derivation of Hamilton's Principle: Questions'

I have recently been really interested in the derivation of Hamiltons Principle. On my research I found that with the term ##m \cdot \frac{d}{dt} (\frac{dr}{dt} \cdot \delta r) = 0## (1) one may derivate ##\delta \int (T - V) dt = 0## (2). The derivation itself I understood quiet good, but what I don't understand is where the equation (1) came from, because in my research it was just given and not derived from anywhere. Does anybody know where (1) comes from or why from it the...
