A fluid manifold for cooling systems has parallel inlets directing flow through a base of a nozzle to an outlet which is preferably parallel to the inlets. The pressure drop from the inlets to the outlet is preferably less than 3 psi and the inlets have inlet portions with check valves connected thereto.

Integrated manifold

A multiport valve has a stemshell rotatable within a valve body with two columns of ports arranged in a planar array. An extra port extends external to the array and inlet ports communicate with selected outlet ports. The stemshell has lateral channels and longitudinal channels which cooperate with the ports at selected angular positions to provide desired inlet/outlet flows while preventing intermixing within the valve.
