Abstract:

The subject matter of this specification can be embodied in, among other things, a fluid flow conditioning apparatus that includes a linear fluid conduit configured to define a linear fluid flow path, a fluid inlet defining an inlet fluid flow path that is non-parallel to the linear fluid flow path, a first fluid flow conditioner having a first conditioner configured to receive fluid flow along the inlet fluid flow path, condition fluid flow, and redirect conditioned fluid flow away from the inlet fluid flow path along the linear fluid flow path along the major axis, a second fluid flow conditioner configured to receive fluid flow from the linear fluid flow path along the major axis, redirect fluid flow away from the linear fluid flow path along an outlet fluid flow path that is non-parallel to the linear fluid flow path, and condition fluid flow, and a fluid outlet.
