= Giovanni Battista Venturi
{wiki=Giovanni_Battista_Venturi}
Giovanni Battista Venturi (1746-1822) was an Italian physicist and engineer, best known for his work in fluid dynamics and for the development of the Venturi effect. The Venturi effect describes the phenomenon where a fluid's velocity increases as it passes through a constricted section of a pipe, which leads to a drop in pressure. This principle has practical applications in various fields, including hydraulics, aerodynamics, and engineering design.
