Bernoulli explained that there is a reduction in pressure exerted by a fluid due to its flow.
This means that many small particles held within the boundary layer will never be lifted using moving air systems, despite the Bernoulli effect, as the air stream will physically not be able to touch them or cannot reach the velocity required within the boundary layer to produce lift-off from the surface.
However the boundary layer effect prevents the creation of the differential air pressure around smaller particles and consequently these are left on the surface.

  Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bernoulli's principle states that in fluid flow, an increase in velocity occurs simultaneously with decrease in pressure.
This principle is a simplification of Bernoulli's equation which states that the sum of all forms of energy in a fluid flowing along an enclosed path (a streamline) is the same at any two points in that path.
The Bernoulli equation for incompressible fluids can be derived by integrating the Euler equations, or applying the law of conservation of energy in two sections along a streamline, ignoring viscosity, compressibility, and thermal effects.

 Magnus effect - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
The Magnus effect is the name given to the physical phenomenon whereby an object's rotation affects its path through a fluid, in particular, air.
It is a product of various phenomena including the Bernoulli effect and the formation of boundary layers in the medium around moving objects.
It is worth noting, however, that the Magnus effect is not responsible for the movement of a cricket ball seen in swing bowling.

 Bernoulli and Newton
The proponents of the arguments usually fall into two camps: (1) those who support the "Bernoulli" position that lift is generated by a pressure difference across the wing, and (2) those who support the "Newton" position that lift is the reaction force on a body caused by deflecting a flow of gas.
Bernoulli's equation, which was named for Daniel Bernoulli, relates the pressure in a gas to the local velocity; so as the velocity changes around the object, the pressure changes as well.
The simultaneous conservation of mass, momentum, and energy of a fluid (while neglecting the effects of air viscosity) are called the Euler Equations after Leonard Euler.

 Jef Raskin - Coanda Effect: Understanding Why Wings Work
The reasoning--though incomplete--is based on the Bernoulli effect, which correctly correlates the increased speed with which air moves over a surface and the lowered air pressure measured at that surface.
Because the surface of the ball is rough, the effect of viscous forces is to create a thin layer of air which rotates with the surface.
The experiments with the miniature wind tunnel described earlier are readily understood in terms of the Coanda effect: the downward-curved wing entrained the airflow to move downward, and a force upward is developed in reaction.

 Physics at Minnesota: Bernoulli Effects
Bernoulli’s Principle, when the speed of a fluid is increased the pressure in the fluid decreases, can be illustrated using the air from a leaf blower or a vacuum cleaner.
Bernoulli's (ber-nool'-ee) principle, states that as the velocity of fluid flow increases the pressure produced by the fluid decreases.
This is another demonstration of Bernoulli’s Principle where an area of higher speed fluid is used to lower the pressure and the visible movement of two plastic pop bottles is used to show the results.

 Bernoulli effect transducer coupler - Patent 4975794
This creates a negative pressure between the Bernoulli plate and the flexible disk which tends to pull the disk close to the plate and cause the disk to "fly" or become "stabilized" as these terms are used in the art, in a predictable planar relationship with respect to the Bernoulli surface.
In Bernoulli systems, head crashes that cause loss of data and possible damage to the drive of the system are protected against because the record media generally flies beneath the head and would fall away from the head with any disruption.
The bernoulli equations show that when a stationary and moving object are placed in close proximity to each other, a negative pressure is generated in the gap between the objects which has the effect of drawing the objects toward one another.

 Aerodynamic Lift, Bernoulli Effect, Reaction Lift
The Bernoulli Lift for practical aircraft wings does not produce such great amounts of lift, but that phenomenon is naturally stable (therefore far safer) because the amount of Bernoulli Lift created is fairly constant for various wing angles.
Reaction Lift is the effect of the pressure of moving fluid (air, in this case) against the bottom of a tilted surface.
For this effect to exist, the wing or your hand must be tilted upward, at an angle that is called the "angle of attack".

 American Antigravity - Bernoulli Effect Thrust Enhancer
This type of propulsion requires no moving parts, and is believed to be created solely on the basis of an interaction between the high-voltage components of the Lifter and the surrounding vacuum-properties of the environment.
This type of propulsion would consist of the Biefeld-Brown effect acting as an enhancer on existing ion-wind effects to create a more efficient methd of displacing air by changing the dynamics of the ion-wind interaction.
While the movement of the air due to high-voltage charge transfer in the LIfter does demonstrate that an atmospheric effect is producing some measure of thrust, the Biefeld-Brown effect may still be producing a considerable amount of thrust in the Lifter as a method of pure "Field-Effect Propulsion".

 Physics of flight - revisited
The explanation of the aerodynamic lift in textbooks is based on Bernoulli’s law and the velocity distribution of the streaming air passing an airfoil.
Finally Bernoulli’s law is applyed to the different flow velocities at the upper and lower side of the wing resulting in a lower pressure at the upper surface and a higher pressure at the lower surface.
In any case it was necessary that the explanation of lift using Bernoulli’s law had to be complemented by giving a cause for the higher streaming velocity of the wing’s upper surface.

The Bernoulli effect *is* fairly weak, and it's difficult to demonstrate it in its 'pure' form.
Although the Bernoulli effect is often cited as the cause of aerofoil life, it is a minor component.
It would suggest to me that the Bernoulli effect is sort of as I had imagined, and that the plate on the top of Freefall's moving car would indeed experience a measurable reduction in pressure (as he said in his last anno).

According to Bernoulli's equation, the static pressure in a fluid decreases as the fluid velocity increases.
The low pressure at the center of the vortex, reminiscent of the low pressure at the center of a hurricane, was found to be lower than that caused by the Bernoulli effect alone.
While it is cert ainly a combination of the vortex, Bernoulli effect, and buoyancy that lead to t he curtain behavior in a hot shower, Schmidt's results suggest that the vortex motion is the dominant factor that drives this phenomenon.

 Pressure
The qualitative behavior that is usually labeled with the term "Bernoulli effect" is the lowering of fluid pressure in regions where the flow velocity is increased.
This is commonly interpreted as an application of the Bernoulli principle and involves the viscosity of the air and the boundary layer of air at the surface of the ball.
The Bernoulli equation cannot really be used to predict the amount of curve of the ball; the flow of the air is compressible, and you can't track the density changes to quantify the change in effective pressure.

Daniel Bernoulli, an eighteenth-century Swiss scientist, discovered that as the velocity of a fluid increases, its pressure decreases.Bernoulli's principle can be seen most easily through the use of a venturi tube.
For this reason, the principle is sometimes called Bernoulli's Law of Pressure Differential.

Bernoulli's theorem is just a statement of the law of conservation of energy and so it is true for airplane wings.
The Bernoulli equation gives the change in pressure due to changes in velocity along a streamline not due to relative velocity with respect to a surface.
This is because the lowering of pressure due to Bernoulli's equation is not due to the relative velocity of the air and the surface of the ball!

 Bernoulli Effect
The Bernoulli effect provides that, when a gas such as air flows, its pressure drops.
This is the basis for how aircraft wings work: The cross-sectional shape of the wing, called an aerofoil (or airfoil), forces air to follow a longer path over the top of the wing, thereby speeding it up and creating a net upward force called lift.
