  • Self-cleaning augmentor fuel drain metering device
    Patent number: 5829246
    Abstract: A fluid flow metering device is provided which includes a body and a plurality of flow restriction plates. The body has a duct, within which the flow restriction plates are disposed in a spaced apart manner. Each flow restriction plate includes an orifice disposed adjacent the interior wall surface of the duct and misaligned with orifices in adjacent plates. A side-to-side flow pattern is created by the position of orifices relative to the interior wall surface and the misalignment between orifices in adjacent plates which inhibits the accumulation of foreign debris within the duct.
