Abstract
A passive flow control valve including a barrier member positioned in a fluid conduit between an upstream conduit portion and a downstream conduit portion. The barrier member substantially prevents fluid flow around a barrier member perimeter. The passive flow control valve also includes barrier member orifices extending through the barrier member, which allow controlled fluid flow through the barrier member orifices. When the fluid flows through the upstream conduit portion and encounters the barrier member, the fluid is prevented from passing around the barrier member perimeter and is forced to flow through the barrier member orifices.
