Claim 0:
1. A fluid flow mixing manifold for reducing the temperature of a thermal energy transfer fluid, said fluid flow mixing manifold comprising:
a divided housing that includes a thermal discharge port, a high temperature fluid input port and a cooling fluid mixing input port;
said divided housing including a mixing chamber with said cooling fluid mixing input port and said high temperature fluid input port in communication with an input end of said mixing chamber;
said mixing chamber including a series of mixing members that cause mixing of the thermal energy transfer fluid flowing through said mixing chamber prior to discharge through said thermal discharge port located at an output end of said fluid flow mixing manifold; and
wherein the fluid flow mixing manifold includes a controller that monitors the temperature of the fluid flow mixing manifold adjacent the thermal discharge port; said controller including a flow control arrangement for regulating the volume of a cooling mixing flow passing through said cooling fluid mixing input port;
said controller further including an arrangement for regulating the volume of the thermal energy transfer fluid passing through said high temperature fluid input port;
said controller regulating said thermal energy transfer fluid flow passing through said high temperature input port and said cooling mixing flow passing through the cooling fluid mixing input port to cause a mixed fluid flow passing through said output thermal discharge port to exit at a reduced temperature compared to the thermal energy transfer fluid entering the high temperature fluid input port as regulated by said controller.
