<p>Embodiments of a water head for anevaporator in a HVAC system are provided. The water head may have a fluid entrance and a fluid exit in a side-by-side arrangement on one end of the water head, and a distribution chamber and a collection chamber in a top-down arrangement on an opposite side of the water head. The distribution chamber and the collection chamber are configured to be in fluid communication with inlets and outlets of a heat exchanging tube bundle respectively. The distribution chamber and the collection chamber can be configured to have continuously smooth surface contours to help reduce pressure drop and fluid separation, and promote advantageous distribution of the process fluid among heat exchanging tubes when a process fluid flows between the fluid entrance or the fluid exit, and the distribution chamber or the collection chamber respectively.</p> |
