Flow control valve
Abstract
Disclosed is a flow device including an inlet, an outlet, and a plurality of fluid flow paths hydraulically connected in parallel to the inlet and the outlet, wherein the plurality of fluid flow paths forms a first ring of fluid flow paths circumferentially arranged at a first radial distance from a centerline of the fluid flow device a second ring of fluid flow patch circumferentially arranged at a second radial distance from the centerline of the fluid flow device, each of the plurality of fluid flow paths has a first hydraulic resistance in a forward flow direction and a second hydraulic resistance in a reverse flow direction, and the second hydraulic resistance is greater than the first hydraulic resistance.
