Abstract
A multistage stacked disk choke includes a housing having a high pressure inlet port and a low pressure outlet port, an assembly, a cage, a seat, and a plug. The assembly includes: a tubular inlet port, a galley intersecting the tubular inlet port, a tubular outlet port, and a bore inward from the tubular outlet port. The cage has an inlet port in communication with the tubular inlet port. The seat is configured to support the assembly. The plug moves inside the assembly bore and restricts flow through the tubular outlet port and/or the tubular inlet port. Operation fluid flows from the high pressure inlet port through the cage inlet port into the tubular inlet port and is redirected into the galley and into the tubular outlet port into the bore of the assembly to a bore in the seat, and out through the low pressure outlet port.
