ABSTRACT:
An extended surface fluid contact plate which includes a plurality of vertical fins oriented in parallel relationship and multiple horizontal fins, also mounted in parallel relationship, with two sets of diagonal fins interconnecting the intersecting vertical and horizontal fins at junctions to provide an extended surface fluid contact matrix. Pins project in spaced relationship from selected locations on the face of the plate and cooperating pin slots are provided in selected junctions in the back of the plate for receiving the pins, to join individual fluid contact plates together in front-to-back, vertically staggered relationship. T-connectors and cooperating T-slots are provided at the top and bottom of each fluid contact plate, respectively, in order to facilitate stacking and connecting the plates in vertical, end-to-end relationship and separate rows of fluid contact plates are aligned to provide a cooling or mass transfer medium of desired size and thickness. In a preferred embodiment, one or more screen elements are included in the fluid contact plate matrix to minimize liquid entrainment in the gas flowing through the matrix.
