Flow-dividing arrangement

Flow-dividing and deflecting arrangement (1) for the flow division and flow deflection of flowable and/or gaseous substances, comprising an elongate extending structure having a structure longitudinal axis (10) and at least one dividing system in which the substance is conducted from a total flow channel (K1), in which the substance is guided in a combined flow, to a series of openings (3) that are arranged along the length of the structure and associated with a narrow outlet region (300) extending along the structure length, the total flow channel (K1) being branched into two substance guiding channels of a first dividing stage that divide the total flow at a first dividing point (T1) and at least one further dividing stage, in which each channel end of the previous stage branches off at the associated dividing point into two channels that divide the flow and deflect the latter in opposed directions in the length direction of the structure, being arranged subsequently, characterised in that at the first dividing point (T1) the total flow channel (K1) is converted into two parallel, adjacently running portions of partial flow channels (K2a, K2b) that guide substance in the same direction, the flow in the region in front of, at and after the dividing point (T1) running rectilinearly or at least almost rectilinearly.
