DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS FOR SPLITTING FLUID FLOWS WITH POROUS MEDIA

摘要

Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for splitting fluid flows with porous medium, such as a porous medium with metal particles, for instance. Some embodiments are particularly directed to a flow splitting assembly that creates a differential flow at a calibrated flow split. In one or more embodiments, for example, an apparatus for flow spitting may include a manifold comprising first, second and third manifold openings in fluid communication. In one or more such embodiments, introduction of a flow to the first manifold opening via an inlet filter may cause a differential flow at a calibrated flow split between a first restrictor coupled to the second opening of the manifold and a second restrictor coupled to the third opening of the manifold. In various embodiments, each restrictor may include one or more porous medium composed of metal particles.
