Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2013095424A1] Disclosed herein is a shape optimized header (200) comprising a shell (202) that is operative for collecting a fluid; wherein an internal diameter and/or a wall thickness of the shell vary with a change in pressure and/or a change in a fluid flow rate in the shell (202); and tubes (204); wherein the tubes (204) are in communication with the shell (202) and are operative to transfer fluid into the shell (202). Disclosed herein is a method comprising fixedly attaching tubes to a shell; wherein the shell is operative for collecting a fluid; wherein an internal diameter and/or a wall thickness of the shell vary with a change in pressure and/or a change in a fluid flow rate in the shell; and wherein the tubes are in communication with the shell and are operative to transfer fluid into the shell.
