METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONDITIONING FLUID FLOW

摘要

Fluid flow is conditioned by introducing a fluid into a nozzle body (152) having an opening defining an inlet (158), an opening defining an outlet (164), and an inner surface (166) connecting the inlet and the outlet by directing the fluid introduced into the inlet of the nozzle body over the inner surface, and by applying a pressure to the fluid. The inner surface (166) of the nozzle is asymmetric with respect to a center line (160a) of the inlet (158).
