peer agreement (net): +1ejector pipe Explanation: As Saugstrahlpumpe is given the following definition in Langenscheidt: f <förd> • ejector pump; ejector; eductor pump; eductor this could suggest your term is ejector pipe. This entry in Wikipedia is also relevant: "An aspirator, also called an eductor-jet pump or filter pump, is a device that produces vacuum by means of the Venturi effect. In an aspirator, fluid (liquid or gaseous) flows through a tube which then narrows. When the tube narrows, the fluid's speed increases, and because of the Venturi effect, its pressure decreases. Vacuum is taken from this point." |
