Diffuser Plates And Diffuser Plate Assemblies

A diffuser plate assembly for a thermal transfer device, wherein the diffuser plate assembly comprises:

• a first diffuser plate comprising a first body having a plurality of first apertures and a second aperture, wherein the plurality of first apertures and the second aperture traverse through the first diffuser plate;
• and
• a second diffuser plate placed in parallel with the first diffuser plate, wherein the second diffuser plate comprises a second body having a plurality of third apertures and a fourth aperture,
• wherein the plurality of first apertures and the plurality of third apertures have a first shape and a first size, wherein the plurality of first apertures is configured to receive a first end of a plurality of tubes and the plurality of third apertures is configured to receive a second end of the plurality of tubes,
• wherein the second aperture has a second size, wherein the second size is larger than the first size, and
• wherein the second aperture of the first diffuser plate and the fourth aperture of the second diffuser plate are misaligned when the first diffuser plate is placed in parallel with the second diffuser plate, such as when the first diffuser plate is coupled to the first end of the plurality of tubes and the second diffuser is coupled to the second end of the plurality of tubes.
