<p>The present invention constitutes an adjustable fluid restrictor providing throttling means to reduce pressure of liquid or gaseous media through a process of adiabatic flow with friction in contrast to conventional orifice type throttling devices which utilize rapid acceleration and deceleration as primary means of energy conversion. Said adjustable fluid restrictor containing labyrinth-type restrictions which are adjusted by conventional actuating means and provide constant enthalpy pressure reduction at substantially constant velocity regardless of variations in flow area.</p> |
