Baffle Plate is a device used for controlling fluid flow inside pipelines or containers, typically a flat or plate-like structure located inside the pipeline or container. Its main function is to change the direction, velocity, and distribution of fluid flow in pipelines or containers, in order to achieve specific fluid processing purposes.

The design and installation position of the splitter plate will affect the flow mode and behavior of the fluid. They can disperse the energy of fluid flow, reduce flow velocity, prevent vortex formation, or divert the fluid to different areas or channels. This helps to achieve more uniform fluid distribution, control flow rate, improve mixing efficiency, and improve mass transfer or heat exchange efficiency.

The splitter plate usually adopts various shapes and structures to adapt to different fluid processing requirements. Common types of splitter plates include:

1. Parallel Baffle Plate: Consisting of a series of parallel plate-like structures, it can be used to control and guide the direction and velocity of fluid flow. They are usually perpendicular to the walls of pipelines or containers, used to disperse fluid energy and provide fluid mixing.

2. Inclined Baffle Plate: A plate like structure with an inclined angle that can be used to guide fluid to a specific direction. They are commonly used for fluid separation, mixing, or control, and are particularly suitable for large containers or trays.

3. Corrugated Baffle Plate: A plate like structure with a corrugated shape that can increase the contact surface area between the fluid and the splitter plate, improve mass transfer efficiency and mixing effect.

4. Flow Breaker: used to interrupt the flow of fluids, prevent the generation of eddies, and increase the stability and uniformity of the flow.

Diverter plates are widely used in many industrial fields, including chemical engineering, petroleum, food processing, water treatment, etc. They play an important role in fluid processing and control, helping to optimize fluid flow, improve reaction efficiency, and improve energy transfer and mass transfer processes.
