Abstract

A fluid flow and cooling system and method are provided. The system has a substantially cylindrical tube shape and is configured to be installed in a circuit breaker for allowing the flow of fluids while dissipating heat from said fluids. The system comprises a plurality of openings on each of front and back surfaces, the openings of the front surface being connected to the openings of the back surface by a plurality of side passages. By having a plurality of side passages for the flow of fluids, heat dissipation may be improved compared to previous circuit breakers tubes for dispensing arc quenching fluid. The method cools a fluid flowing in a cooling device having side passages.
