A system includes a rotary isobaric pressure exchanger (IPX) including a rotor. The rotor includes a first axial end face and a second axial end face. The rotary IPX also includes a first endplate including a first axial surface disposed adjacent to the first axial end face of the rotor. The first endplate also includes a first low pressure fluid port and first high pressure fluid port. Additionally, the first endplate includes a channel formed in the first axial surface and extending from the first low pressure fluid port. Further, the first endplate includes a first low pressure sink formed in the first axial surface and extending from the first channel. The first channel is configured to route low pressure fluid from the first low pressure fluid port to the first low pressure sink. |
