EVAPORATOR WITH GROOVED CHANNELS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240027141 titled 'EVAPORATOR WITH GROOVED CHANNELS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an orifice insert that consists of a center plug and a ring feature. The center plug has an exterior surface with multiple inflow channels that extend from one end to the other, terminating at points midway between the ends. The ring feature surrounds the center plug and the inflow channels, creating a plenum that allows fluid communication with the termination points of the inflow channels.

  • The orifice insert includes a center plug with multiple inflow channels and a ring feature.
  • The center plug has an exterior surface that defines the inflow channels, which extend from one end to the other.
  • The inflow channels terminate at points midway between the ends of the center plug.
  • The ring feature surrounds the center plug and the inflow channels, creating a plenum.
  • The termination points of the inflow channels are fluidly communicative with the plenum.

Potential Applications:

  • Fluid control systems
  • Industrial processes requiring precise flow regulation
  • Hydraulic systems
  • Water treatment systems

Problems Solved:

  • Provides a more efficient and controlled flow regulation compared to traditional orifice designs.
  • Reduces turbulence and pressure drop in fluid systems.
  • Allows for more precise and uniform distribution of fluid.

Benefits:

  • Improved flow control and regulation.
  • Reduced turbulence and pressure drop.
  • Enhanced efficiency and performance of fluid systems.
  • More precise and uniform distribution of fluid.


Original Abstract Submitted

an orifice insert is provided and includes a center plug and a ring feature. the center plug has first and second ends and an exterior surface extending between the first and second ends. the exterior surface defines multiple inflow channels that extend from the first end toward the second end and terminate at termination points midway between the first and second ends. the ring feature is disposed about the center plug and the multiple inflow channels to define, with the center plug, a plenum with which the termination points of the multiple inflow channels are fluidly communicative.
