The position of the piston inside the sleeve is determined by the upward pressure of the liquid against the base of the piston and the downward pressure of the spring inside the piston (not shown here). The pressure of the spring is regulated by the adjusting screw.

If the pressure of the liquid increases, the flow rate through the knife–edged orifice will increase. The piston is moved upward closing off more of the outlet orifices. The same flow rate is thereby maintained.

1.3 Adjusting Flow Rates

Flow rates of the water and syrup are adjusted based on the desired ratio. For example: if the desired ratio is 5:1, then the flow rate of the water is 5 times that of the syrup.

If the desired finished drink total flow rate is 3.0 ounces per second, then the water flow rate is 2.5 oz./sec and the syrup flow rate is 0.5 oz./sec. (The water at 2.5 oz./sec is five times the 0.5 oz./sec syrup flow rate.)

UF-1, UFB-1 specifications

Cornelius UFB-1 and UF-1 represent a significant advancement in the realm of recreational watercraft, specifically designed for enthusiasts seeking optimal performance and comfort on the water. These models symbolize the culmination of innovative engineering and user-centric design, aimed at improving the overall boating experience.

One of the standout features of the Cornelius UFB-1 is its lightweight construction, which utilizes advanced composite materials. This not only enhances the craft’s maneuverability but also maximizes fuel efficiency. The hull design is streamlined to reduce resistance in the water, allowing for faster speeds and better handling, particularly in challenging conditions. The UF-1, while similar in construction, offers a slightly larger profile, providing additional stability, making it ideal for families or those looking to enjoy leisure outings.

Both models are equipped with cutting-edge technology, including digital displays for navigation and performance monitoring. These interfaces offer real-time data, enabling users to make informed decisions while out on the water. The integration of GPS systems enhances safety by allowing users to plot courses and avoid hazards with ease. Furthermore, the vessels are designed to support wireless connectivity, enabling users to stay connected even while away from shore.

Comfort and convenience are paramount in the design of the Cornelius UFB-1 and UF-1. The spacious interior layouts provide ample seating and storage options, allowing for extended trips without sacrificing comfort. The seating materials are selected for durability and ease of maintenance, ensuring that the vessels can withstand the rigors of regular use. Additional features, such as retractable awnings and adjustable sun pads, enhance the experience by providing relief from the sun during hot days on the water.

Safety is another crucial aspect, with both models outfitted with essential equipment including life jackets, navigation lights, and fire extinguishers. The design also incorporates safety features like non-slip flooring and high-quality handrails to ensure stability when moving around the vessel.

In summary, the Cornelius UFB-1 and UF-1 deliver exceptional performance, technological innovation, and comfort, making them a top choice for watercraft enthusiasts. With their focus on user experience and safety, these models set a new standard in the recreational boating market, promising unforgettable adventures on the water.
