It's on his channel header. Also all over the internet if you google it. Instead you waited for a youtube video to tell you what you wanted to know. Good job! Sorry AvE brings it out of me
It's like seeing the face of God. It's like seeing your kindergarten teacher drink a beer. Or hearing the preacher swear. Nevermind the man behind the curtain.
When Grady said this was an international collaboration between Canada and the United States I assumed he was the Canadian since he seems so polite and wholesome and AvE was American given his blunt sense of humour. Upon viewing Grady's profile and discovering he is from Texas I learnt a lesson about prejudice :P.
@David Boerboom he's French -Canadian, no need to be naturalized, if a person speaks Engligh with a funny French accent and swears like a sailor, he's definitely a natural born Canadian...
Can't believe I am just finding this now. I love both these channels, but am surprised to see them together. They are both pretty clearly typical engineers, but from opposite ends of the sanity spectrum.
What an awesome surprise to see one of our favorite channels use our gauge!!! It looks like you could use a differential pressure gauge with a higher range. Would you want us to send out a free gauge with a 0-30PSI range? (we also have a 20 and 40)
@@sonofnone116 I agree with that, Shill-star ruined it for me. He's worse than Linus for making everything a add and taking products and or money ( Linus Sebastian tho never faked his way, and worked hard unlike Wrangle-prick, huge sellout it's all about a pay check)
Worked as a throttleman on a submarine in the US Navy, we used venturi to draw vacuum in condensors. Also had to listen to hydrophones to make sure that we did not cavitate.
Kevin Agnew I was on a surface ship! We cavitated anytime we accelerated too quickly and it was powerful enough to make the whole ship shake. Being in control of all that power was one of my favorite parts of standing throttleman watch.
Man! I wish I could use that in my job history, "Worked as a throttleman on a submarine..." Don't bump into many guys that can claim that. Cool, very cool.
You make fluid mechanics a practical and fun topic that invites you to watch your videos. The general opinion says that if someone took the time to prepare and share something special, it is up to the rest of us to offer the courtesy of seeing it, thank you for your generosity. ...
I’m only here bc AvE and he was hardly even featured.. clickbait if you ask me. Ps. This guys bland narrative and approach to something that should be intriguing almost put me to sleep. NEXT!
I love that you simply acknowledged the criticism and moved on, without spiraling into a cycle of self pity and doubt. That’s an engineering skill that can’t be taught, but a necessary skill as there’s always gonna be someone better qualified who’ll tear your work apart, along with your spirit, and you just gotta pick up the pieces keep moving along.
Great video and explanation, but I thought that I should point out that most of the bubbles you are creating are from the dissolved gasses in the water. This is observed by watching the bubbles and how far they travel past the area of low pressure. If they were purely water vapor bubbles they would collapse much sooner. The dissolved gasses coming out of solution are what prevent a lot more damage from being done to equipment such as boat propellers, because they cushion the vapor bubble collapse. When you have a system such as a condensate pump where the air and noncondensable gasses have been removed, the vapor bubble collapse can be much more violent and destructive.
@dothemathright 1111 I have done those syringe experiments years ago and allmost all my bubbles did disappear extremely fast. I assume that collapsing steam bubbles also could be the reason that water that does not yet boil make a "coarser" sound than boiling water. Bubbles appear at the bottom of the kettle but then collapse as they rise. In boiling water they reach the surface.
Interesting demo. My dad worked in the water treatment/delivery business for over 40 years. His specialty was back-flow protection, but he also had to deal with cavitation issues. I learned a lot from him about these subjects as a kid, sitting around the dining table. Some of the pump "guts", both large and small, that I got to see were pretty amazing. Hard to imagine if you haven't seen some of it.
Thanks for sharing. There was a documentary on water cavitation where they used cavitation to really efficiently heat water, it was a spinning cylindrical rotor assembly with lots of shallow round holes, encased in a tight fitting round housing with an inlet and outlet for the water and while rotating, the water passed through and underwent cavitation and rapidly heated in the process. I think the docco was called “Equinox it runs on water”
This drawing perfectly sums up the difference between civil and mechanical engineers. Civils don’t do manufacturing/machining so the drawing was dimensioned but didn’t give any context how to build it.
@@saab9251 I assume a good drawing has to include both all necessary dimensions, as well as choose to define the most convenient dimensions. Is that right? Or people just like to complain?
@@arkie87 Sometimes its simply staring at your own work so long that you can't see mistakes. Like submitting a paper and then realizing a word in the first sentence is misspelled even though you checked it 12 times. Other times it comes down to drafting standards that keep you from "over dimensioning" a drawing. This mainly comes into play when you have both baseline and chain dimensions. Every dimension has a tolerance, every time you stack dimensions you stack the tolerances, and over dimensioning can create a conflict where you technically have two dimension windows you're trying to hit.
Ok. Confession time. I am no Engineer. Rather I'm the guy with all the Psych qualifications that my Engineer friends secretly laughed at when we were at Uni. Some 20 years ago now. My passion being Depth Psych.( Although thats not my Practice) . So, really interesting to witness this colab. The "low pressure" style/tone/flow of Practical Engineering vs the "High pressure " style of AvE. And the unconscious tone then creating a moment of dissonant "cavitation", which while a joke, nevertheless was still included at the expense of ......And whatsmore; at the moment the low pressure segwayed to the high pressure. All the while, the topic being what it is. I love learning. That's why I watch both these channels.Yet, I never expected to take home an observation of this kind, by clicking on this vid. Thank you.
AvE: Mechanical Engineering Electroboom & Great Scott: Electrical Engineering Practical Engineering: Civil Engineering Cody'sLab: Chemical Engineering We now need them all to get Ph.Ds or ensure they all have P.Engs so they can create their own Engineering Faculty for TH-cam University.
I haven't been subscribed to you for very long but I've been watching his videos for years. He is by far my favorite TH-camr along with Ian from forgotten weapons.
I love that the communities around these channels are connected, it gives it the same feel as like the Marvel franchise where it's our *real* universe 🤣 And guys like this and AvE, and This Old Tony are absolutely awesome! I'm pretty sure I've seen every video they've done, and honestly, there's not a single bad one! And yea, AvE is a friggin mystery! TIL the full name of Arduino vs Evil, so now we're one step closer to seeing his face lol. ToT shows himself in at least one video, so the mystery can be abated on that one, but I swear, the amount of knowledge that is stored inside the brain department or Mr. AvE (I *think* his name might be Ralph, I think I heard someone slip one time and called him by name, but not 100% on that haha) But seriously, the vocabulary and his ability to "tongue-tangulate" is absolutely astonishing, and I will straight up Google any references or terms if I don't know them, just in hopes to keep up with the info! Anyway, I love that science, engineering, and the like are popular and presented in an interesting way. Keep 'em coming!
Congratulations !!! Very well done and explained !!! I never heart about this property of fluids in my 60 years life but it´s never late to learn. Thanks a lot !!! Have a good life !!!
You have forever been contaminated by AvE. His shmoo is impossible to remove. The only option left to you is to rename your channel. Henceforth it shall be called _Practical Enginerding._
The big issue with cavitation is the shape the water makes as it condenses back to water. The bubble on a surface collapses which forms a needle end which is what destroys the surface of impellers and whatever else you have. Here's a link to a video of the collapsing bubble forming a small, sharp acceleration of the water. Edit2: I never added the video... Weird. Here it is: th-cam.com/video/ZaB5B3pec-A/w-d-xo.html
Oddly I am wearing my AvE shirt and tomorrow is my dads birthday where I gift him an AvE shirt. His second AvE shirt actually. Also I remember when AvE made this but I never realized it was for you.
This was a great watch. I've spent a lot of time around watercraft and had a basic understanding of how destructive and counterproductive cavitation can be. This gave me a much fuller understanding of it. Hats off to AvE for joining this, and I've also just subscribed to this channel as well. It will come in handy for becoming a self taught engineer! Tons of respect for all the TH-camrs that devote their time to teaching others the ways of the enginerds and Jedi. Keep your stick on the ice.
Ironically, I'm already a subscriber to Ave, and I clicked on this video because it said it was a collaboration with him... Never heard of one of those before!
Excellent work, thumbs up to Ave also, I've admired his realistic tool and tool manufacturing appraisals as well, which are equally matched by his dry sense of humour. Keep em coming. Thank you
Thanks! I've been around cavitation and venturis with exhaust primers and pumps but never realized that steam was the culprit. I didn't know where the vapor came from so thanks for clearing it up. Just pile a pressure cooker principle only lots more potent. Thanks again!
Imagine watching a youtube channel in elementary school because it was intriguing than after high school and a few years of work you go to college and find yourself watching the same man explain fluid dynamics and teaching you what the professors wont. thank you grady, should i find you, your next beer is on me !
I realise that this is an old comment, but AvE went through his channel a couple of years ago and removed a whole load of vidjeos, this project would have been among those unfortunately.
Thank you for getting me I to AvE with your project. Before I knew either channel well, it was AvE on his bridgeport talking about terrible engineers that was one of the first few shows that I saw, leading me to you eventually.
Jim's videos i know a guy who is the pale of a biker Church He's also a tattoo artist and a bail bondsman. And also one of the genuinely nicest dudes ive ever met.
This is hilarious. I recently subscribed to this channel and remember watching AvE going through this 2 years ago (long time AvE fan). I have gone full circle.
Awesome vid. We use a down hole pump in the oil fields that work off of the Venturi effect. we use large p.d pumps to move produced fluids in to a throat and nozzle to reduce down hole pressure and lift struggling oil and gas wells. Pretty awesome to see cavitation in action I only see the aftermath at work.
An even cooler example of cavitation in nature would be the pistol shrimp! Mantis shrimp do use cavitation, but they also just punch their prey very hard. Pistol shrimp have a single large claw with natural springs built into the chitin. They ratchet the claw open, and can then slam it shut with such force that it creates a cavitation bubble. When the bubble collapses, the resulting shockwave can stun, or even kill prey outright. Moreover, they can use the sound to communicate! Pistol shrimp get their name from that loud, gunshot like noise. They can be clearly heard in an aquarium from across the room. They're the loudest animal in the world, creating sound over 200dB. When colonies of thousands gather on a reef, the cacophony can disrupt sonar. Other animals around the reef use it to navigate at night, because they can always hear what direction the reef is. Mantis shrimp accidentally create cavitation. Pistol shrimp do it on purpose.
Now that is an interesting, informative and useful comment. Top work mate. Any idea of the relative sizes of cavitation bubble that the two species create? I presume the Pistol Shrimp's bubble would be a fair bit bigger, simply due to more efficient natural design?
The water phase diagram didn't correctly indicate that liquid water is more dense than ice by the slope of the line between the solid and liquid be phases. (Note: I'm a chemist). Also, I have personally used sonicating baths which function via cavitation to remove air bubbles from solutions as well as used ultrasound the lyse open bacterial cell walls as a step in protein purification. It's interesting to see how people outside my field use the same physical processes.
Your drawings were fine. The only dimension thats unclear is the minor diameter of the tapered hole but if it was drawn to scale, theres enough info there. I think Ave went about it the wrong way.
Use one of the simpler parametric CADs to sketch the part, and don't stop until it's saying "zero degrees of freedom left". Impossible to go wrong with that... ;)
It's 1:34 AM and here I am after reading The Emerald Mile, in which the cavitation in the spillway tunnels at Glenn Canyon Dam caused a lot of damage. I'm not much of an engineer but dams and the forces involved with them have captured my interest
A Tool Maker would've designed that to be 4 triangles held in a bolster. Very easy to machine (no deep cuts with narrow tools), interchangeable functional bits (swap out triangles to get different venturi values without rebuilding the entire unit), able to use dis-similar materials (Aluminum bolster with tool steel (maybe 4140) working surfaces ?) Tsk, tsk... next time you want to give the engineer what he/she NEEDS rather than what he/she ASKS for, consult a Tool Maker. We've learned (in the most painful ways) to do this innately. As both a Tool Maker and a Mech. Eng. my left side is in constant battle with my right, but I ALWAYS get what I need in the most efficient manner. Gonna cut & paste this to Practical Engineering's v'jayo and offer you both a nickels worth of free advice on future endeavours available just for the assking. (not a typo)
Brady, I'm trying to find out how/where the cavitation occurs on a ultrasonic cleaning tub - like the one you showed. I know there is cavitation near the transducer and I have a feeling it doesn't happen in the water while the wave travels. My intuition is the cavitation happens only near the surface of the thing being cleaned. The contour conditions demand water near solid surfaces to be stopped so I think it happens the waves get near the body's surface. I think, I have an intuition but what I really would like to know is what really happens!!! Dude, you are an aweseom teacher and a great engineer!!! Thanks for the content!
Grady i've been watching some of your older videos and I must say your one shot liners are pretty good. AVE having a callped out bridgeport milling machine or the joke about coming home with a lincoln welder when your wife is a miller type of guy. Right on!
My disparaging remarks are taken out of context! I blame the clapped out Bridgeport.
Don't ruin the mystery!
He could have told us to keep our Richard out of a venturi at least.
Is that an Alex Steele reference?
*Always* blame the clapped out Bridgeport!
Your Canadian politeness shines through all your work.
cAvEtation? I have no idea what that means but loved the video.

AvE even has the Canadian accent
Can't believe I am just finding this now. I love both these channels, but am surprised to see them together. They are both pretty clearly typical engineers, but from opposite ends of the sanity spectrum.

The big issue with cavitation is the shape the water makes as it condenses back to water. The bubble on a surface collapses which forms a needle end which is what destroys the surface of impellers and whatever else you have.

Thank you for getting me I to AvE with your project. Before I knew either channel well, it was AvE on his bridgeport talking about terrible engineers that was one of the first few shows that I saw, leading me to you eventually.
It's like seeing the preacher roll up to the church on a Harley. o.O
Jim's videos i know a guy who is the pale of a biker Church
He's also a tattoo artist and a bail bondsman.
And also one of the genuinely nicest dudes ive ever met.
This is hilarious. I recently subscribed to this channel and remember watching AvE going through this 2 years ago (long time AvE fan). I have gone full circle.
I feel like Watts is a terrible name for a company that makes gauges for pressure.
Glad to see another channel give AvE some love, enjoy this channel as well.👍
AvE videos are gone. Any backup of his videos? Be awesome to see those :)
Let me know if you find them pls
Awesome vid. We use a down hole pump in the oil fields that work off of the Venturi effect. we use large p.d pumps to move produced fluids in to a throat and nozzle to reduce down hole pressure and lift struggling oil and gas wells. Pretty awesome to see cavitation in action I only see the aftermath at work.
An even cooler example of cavitation in nature would be the pistol shrimp! Mantis shrimp do use cavitation, but they also just punch their prey very hard.
Pistol shrimp have a single large claw with natural springs built into the chitin. They ratchet the claw open, and can then slam it shut with such force that it creates a cavitation bubble. When the bubble collapses, the resulting shockwave can stun, or even kill prey outright. Moreover, they can use the sound to communicate!
Pistol shrimp get their name from that loud, gunshot like noise. They can be clearly heard in an aquarium from across the room. They're the loudest animal in the world, creating sound over 200dB. When colonies of thousands gather on a reef, the cacophony can disrupt sonar. Other animals around the reef use it to navigate at night, because they can always hear what direction the reef is.
Mantis shrimp accidentally create cavitation. Pistol shrimp do it on purpose.
Now that is an interesting, informative and useful comment. Top work mate.
Any idea of the relative sizes of cavitation bubble that the two species create?
I presume the Pistol Shrimp's bubble would be a fair bit bigger, simply due to more efficient natural design?
My understanding is that they are very difficult to keep in aquariums because they're liable to break the glass of the aquarium.
its cool to see two of my longtime favourite channels to connect like this. Sorta validates this middle ground universe I call home
The water phase diagram didn't correctly indicate that liquid water is more dense than ice by the slope of the line between the solid and liquid be phases. (Note: I'm a chemist).
Also, I have personally used sonicating baths which function via cavitation to remove air bubbles from solutions as well as used ultrasound the lyse open bacterial cell walls as a step in protein purification. It's interesting to see how people outside my field use the same physical processes.
this how ave does it. brick by brick. golden channel.
I was wondering when that thing would come back.
Man I love you you are amazing and currently i am studying civil engineering and because of you u made me proud to be studying civil engineering
haha! now I have understood why when I bend the garden water pipe I can hear a strong noise of bubbles! Just some Bernoulli's shit going on there
UNZO Oh yeah! I'd forgotten about that question. Nice.
Arduino Versus Evil! Ive been a subscriber for years and this is the first time I've heard that. My life has changed this day.
Your drawings were fine. The only dimension thats unclear is the minor diameter of the tapered hole but if it was drawn to scale, theres enough info there. I think Ave went about it the wrong way.
Use one of the simpler parametric CADs to sketch the part, and don't stop until it's saying "zero degrees of freedom left". Impossible to go wrong with that... ;)
*aboot
This is the smartest engineer, needs more subs.
Woooo AvE
It's 1:34 AM and here I am after reading The Emerald Mile, in which the cavitation in the spillway tunnels at Glenn Canyon Dam caused a lot of damage. I'm not much of an engineer but dams and the forces involved with them have captured my interest
A Tool Maker would've designed that to be 4 triangles held in a bolster. Very easy to machine (no deep cuts with narrow tools), interchangeable functional bits (swap out triangles to get different venturi values without rebuilding the entire unit), able to use dis-similar materials (Aluminum bolster with tool steel (maybe 4140) working surfaces ?)
Tsk, tsk... next time you want to give the engineer what he/she NEEDS rather than what he/she ASKS for, consult a Tool Maker. We've learned (in the most painful ways) to do this innately.
As both a Tool Maker and a Mech. Eng. my left side is in constant battle with my right, but I ALWAYS get what I need in the most efficient manner. Gonna cut & paste this to Practical Engineering's v'jayo and offer you both a nickels worth of free advice on future endeavours available just for the assking. (not a typo)
Brady, I'm trying to find out how/where the cavitation occurs on a ultrasonic cleaning tub - like the one you showed. I know there is cavitation near the transducer and I have a feeling it doesn't happen in the water while the wave travels. My intuition is the cavitation happens only near the surface of the thing being cleaned. The contour conditions demand water near solid surfaces to be stopped so I think it happens the waves get near the body's surface. I think, I have an intuition but what I really would like to know is what really happens!!!
Dude, you are an aweseom teacher and a great engineer!!! Thanks for the content!
Does anyone know what happened to the related AvE videos?
Good AvE plug. I love his channel, and now will watch yours
SUOMI MAINITTU, tai lähinnä vilahti ruudulla
torilla tavataan!
I love these channels. You and a few others help fill in the gaps the school system left in my understanding of practical science
“There’s three ways to do this: the dirty way, the hard way-”
*What’s the third way??*
I would assume the right way LOL
Turbulence in water wears pin holes into copper, also causes water hammer in your water lines, Awesome video very informative
I always thought it was Age vs Experience.
Grady i've been watching some of your older videos and I must say your one shot liners are pretty good. AVE having a callped out bridgeport milling machine or the joke about coming home with a lincoln welder when your wife is a miller type of guy. Right on!
A nice vid at 4 am :D
West coast represent.
That's awesome I've been watching AvE for a very long time and never new what it stood for!! And what a great explanation!
