ABSTRACT:
A fluid pressure reduction device includes a plurality of flow resistance modules. Each flow resistance module includes two flow segment plates. Fluid enters a flow path in the first flow segment plate, executes two right-angle turns and then enters a flow path in the second flow segment plate. The fluid then executes two more right-angle turns and reenters the first flow segment plate wherein it executes yet two more right-angle turns before returning to the second flow segment plate. A plurality of these double right-angle turns is executed by the flowing fluid before it exits the flow resistance module. Retaining fluid within the openings in the first and second flow segment plates are either a pair of baffle plates placed on either side of the flow segment plates, or the solid portions of adjacent flow segment plates.
