<p>A surge tank is sized to retain a volume of fluid. A fluid inlet/outlet port is attached to the tank, and an elastomeric bladder (14) is disposed within the tank and separates the fluid from a volume of gas. A nozzle system (12) is disposed within the tank and has a nozzle member comprising a first plurality of axially elongate perforations (34), and a second plurality of perforations (33). The nozzle member can extend a partial or complete distance with tank. The tank body includes a throat (36) that extends outwardly from a portion of the tank adjacent the port, and a portion of the nozzle member comprising the first plurality of elongate perforations (34) is disposed within the throat (36). An annular space exists adjacent the nozzle member in the neck to facilitate the flow of solid constituent within the fluid from the tank and into the nozzle member.</p> |
