Abstract
An inlet flow distributor comprising multiple chambers and a flow splitter which can be freely inserted through the feedwater inlet nozzle and assembled and attached to the nozzle in such a manner that each chamber receives a portion of the influent feedwater and distributes it at controlled peak velocities and in a predetermined pattern to the shell through a pair of perforated plates having offset perforations in order to reduce vibration of tubes adjacent thereto.
