A process for short contact time cracking of heavy feed. A falling, annular curtain of hot regenerated FCC catalyst, or hot inert solids, is formed over a cone shaped plug valve. Hydrocarbons pass from under the cone, or via a hollow stem, in radial in to out flow to contact the falling curtain of solids. After 0.01 to 1.0 seconds of contact time, solids and cracked vapor are separated, preferably in a bell separator beneath the reaction zone. Downflow of reactants into a contiguous upflowing stripper minimizes attrition.
