Question 1 of 27070

The three basic parts of any eductor are the nozzle, the suction chamber, and the __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Eductor (jet pump) operating principle – how a high-velocity jet entrains and moves another fluid • Flow path through an eductor: driving fluid enters, suction fluid is drawn in, then mixed stream exits • Difference between a nozzle (accelerates flow) and the downstream component that slows and recovers pressure

💭 Think About

• After the nozzle accelerates the driving fluid, what must happen to convert that high-velocity, low-pressure stream back into useful discharge pressure? • Which of the options names a component commonly used in pumps or flow devices to slow down fluid and increase its pressure? • Think of Venturi tubes and pump outlets: what do we call the expanding section that recovers pressure from velocity?

✅ Before You Answer

• Match the missing part to its function: it should be located after the suction chamber and before the outlet. • Eliminate any choice that is not a standard part of a jet pump/eductor assembly. • Check which option is associated with pressure recovery by gradual area increase, not with compression by moving parts.
