DK44 - this is not an easy answer. A few considerations are:
- height under nozzle for distribution (plenum area)
- length
- nozzle size
- flow velocities at various points - in nozzle, in plenum above bundle, through bundle
- is there adequate pressure drop through bundle ("back pressure") to cause the flow to spread out
- impingement plate of perforated plates to assist with distribution
