Abstract

The arrangement includes a plurality of vertical water pipes with nozzles arranged on the pipes in a manner to minimize interaction between the water droplets coming from the nozzles. The arrangement consists of a plurality of spaced vertical water pipes arranged about a central area with a plurality of vertically spaced water nozzles located on each pipe. The nozzles on each vertical pipe are located along different horizontal planes from the nozzles on the adjacent vertical pipes. In another arrangement the vertically spaced nozzles on each vertical water pipe are circumferentially spaced from each vertically adjacent nozzle. Groups of vertical water pipes may be concentrically arranged about the central area with the spacing between the groups, the spacing of the vertical water pipes in each group and the location of the nozzles minimizing the interaction of the water droplets from the nozzles.
