Best Answer: The events are called slalom and giant slalom. Slalom (SL) - gates very close together vertically and horizontally. Quick short turns required. Some gates are vertically in a row so the skier needs to very rapidly maneuver the skis right to left. This is called a flush.
Best Answer: Venturies and Orifice plates are widely used in industries to measure the flow rate of gases and liquids. The working principle is simple and flow is measured using the differential pressure principle.Even for a wind to blow, there has to be a low pressure and a high pressure.eport Abuse. Venturi meters are used to measure the speed of a fluid's flow through a pipe. I don't know about in cars, but I think an important industrial application would be to monitor the flow rates of chemicals through the pipes of a chemical plant.
Background Venturi masks are commonly used in the hospital setting to deliver controlled percentages of oxygen. This is important for those at risk of hypercapnic respiratory failure and to accurately assess ventilation and gas exchange. Hospital oxygen supplies deliver high velocity and pressure, which are required for Venturi masks to operate as designed. Home oxygen is commonly delivered via concentrators, which work at lower pressures and this may affect the performance of Venturi masks if they are requested for home use.
