Method and apparatus for quieting turbulence in a gas flow line valve

摘要

A set of tubes, having inlets and outlets, is placed on the downstream side of a modulating flow regulator or valve in a gas flow line. The inlet tubes collect all the gas flow in the tubes. The tubes bend gently and redirect the gas flow so that gas turbulence is reduced. The tubes are grouped as a bundle downstream and position the set of tube outlets so that downstream flow is less noisy and less turbulent.
