Robert Venturi: 1925–2018

Performance of Venturi Scrubber

In this article we have made an attempt to survey some results on performance of jet ejector. The literature is also reviewed to pursue further work in this area. Key wordsHEVS, EVS, jet ejector, performance of venture scrubber, characteristics of jet ejector, efficiency

Venturi-based Two-layer Microfluidic Pumping System

This paper reports a new microfluidic method for pumping fluid and the generation of droplets and bubbles using the Venturi principle, driving flow using pressure without numerous connections or extensive external control systems. The 2-layer devices in PDMS have no moving parts, and can pump fluid at flow rates >

Venturi easy ambient sonic-spray ionization.

The development and illustrative applications of an ambient ionization technique termed Venturi easy ambient sonic-spray ionization (V-EASI) is described. Its dual mode of operation with Venturi self-pumping makes V-EASI applicable to the direct mass spectrometric analysis of both liquid (V(L)-EASI) and solid (V(S)-EASI) samples. V-EASI is simple and easy to assemble, operating solely via the a...

Robert Insall

Robert Insall was born in London in 1965, into a family of architects, musicians and historians. To their great surprise, he was obviously scientifically inclined from an early age. He did a B.A. at Cambridge University, then stuck around in Cambridge for a Ph.D., where he got interested in Dictyostelium, followed by a postdoc in Johns Hopkins, where he got interested in chemotaxis and cell mov...
