Abstract
Venturi devices and systems incorporating the same are disclosed. The Venturi devices include a lower body defining a passageway having a motive section and a discharge section spaced a distance apart from one another to define a first Venturi gap and a second Venturi gap downstream of the first Venturi gap at a position that divides the discharge section into a first portion between the first and second Venturi gaps and a second portion leading away from the second Venturi gap, and include an upper body defining a suction passageway in fluid communication with both the first and second Venturi gaps. The motive section and the discharge section converge toward the first Venturi gap.
