All you really need is the angles once you have the throat dimension and that's all here ...

Jim, you have wiki editor status so you can tweak it yourself.

If I can build a page I'm sure you can edit one,or are you not up for the challenge.

I think Jim's talking about Tony's calculator, which you need 4 PhDs and 15yds breast stroke certificate to understand.

Hmm... I'd like to get my head around the whole thing.  Looks like my next processor may have 1" pipework and maybe 350 - 400 litres. 

James can u do one out of 1" with the pipe threaded at either end for a 1" tee?

Is it a venturi, yes.
Is it made out of metal, yes.
Has he done one in 1" with threaded pipe, yes, once or twice.

I have one of his in 28mm copper and it'll be running a 475L reactor in the future.

I can do a bifurcated 2" if you want (Cammy has one) a 1", 2", 3" or any size you want.

You need to get yourself a tidy pump for your planned big reactor.

I may need a 2" soon and will probably leave the Venturi to the experts
