ABSTRACT The invention is concerned with a device and method for converting at least a part of a stream of a flowable medium flowing down a tube into a flat stream having a substantially uniform flow rate across its width. The device comprises a substantially vertical tube down and through which the medium can flow; a stationary and planar first plate, the first plate being substantially flat and substantially horizontal to induce smooth and non-turbulent flow of the medium across the first plate and being disposed below the tube; and at least one second plate inclined at an angle substantially less than 90° relative to the first plate and adapted to receive medium flowing over the edge of at least a portion of the first plate and extending at least partially beneath the first plate and terminating in a straight lower edge. Means are also provided to meter the amount of medium flowing onto any one increment of the width of the second plate so that it will be, after flowing down the second plate a predetermined distance, substantially equal to the amount of medium flowing down any other increment of equal width. The invention is particularly useful in handling slurries or dispersions of solid or liquid particles in a liquid.
