Method, apparatus and mixing device for evenly mixing reactant to exhaust gas flow
An apparatus for aftertreatment of exhaust gas includes a housing configured to define an inner cavity; an exhaust inlet arranged to the housing for entering exhaust gas flow to the inner cavity; a mixer unit arranged in the inner cavity to dispense a reactant to the exhaust gas flow; a mixing device, located downstream of the mixer unit, to evenly mix the reactant to the exhaust gas flow. The mixing device includes: a toroidal cylinder to receive the exhaust gas flow from the mixer unit via a solid tubular element, wherein the solid tubular element is in a centric manner to a first base of the toroidal cylinder for guiding the exhaust gas flow led into the toroidal cylinder to swirl inside the toroidal cylinder; and an exhaust outlet arranged to a curved side of the toroidal cylinder, to exit the exhaust gas flow from the mixing device.
METHOD AND COLLOIDAL MIXER FOR COLLOIDAL PROCESSING OF A SLURRY
The invention relates to a method and a colloidal mixer for colloidal processing of a slurry, in particular processing of construction materials, with a colloidal mixer, in which at least one liquid is introduced into a mixing trough, at the lower region of which is arranged an outlet opening with a mixing device having a mixing rotor, which is driven in rotation.
According to the invention, the at least one pulverulent solid component is introduced into the mixing trough, the at least one liquid mixed with the at least one pulverulent solid component is induced to flow by the rotatingly driven mixing rotor and is discharged from the mixing trough through the outlet opening, wherein the mixture is led back again for a certain time via a backflow line into an upper region of the mixing trough for further mixing and, after a desired mixing state has been attained, the mixture is discharged as a finished slurry from the outlet opening by means of a discharge line.
According to the invention, it is provided that air is incorporated into the at least one liquid and/or the mixture in a targeted manner in a finely dispersed form, wherein a relative density of the liquid, or of the mixture, is reduced.
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A READY-TO-USE SOLUTION FROM A CONCENTRATE
A device and related method for producing a ready-to-use solution from a concentrate and a diluent includes an inlet for the diluent; an inlet for the concentrate; an outlet for the solution; a line extending from the inlet for the diluent via a confluence where diluent and concentrate meet, to the outlet; a mixing container arranged in the line between the confluence and the outlet and having a larger cross-section than parts of the line, which are arranged upstream and downstream of the mixing container; and a metering pump for the concentrate, which is connected on the suction side to the inlet for the concentrate and on the pressure side to the confluence and which operates in a pulsed manner. The metering pump works with a clock frequency, in which a plurality of pump surges are attributable to the dwell time of the liquid in the mixing container.
MIXER FOR A VEHICLE EXHAUST SYSTEM
A vehicle exhaust system includes an outer housing defining an internal cavity surrounding an axis, an inlet baffle configured to direct engine exhaust gas into the internal cavity, and an injector that is configured to spray a fluid into the internal cavity to mix with engine exhaust gas. An inner wall is spaced radially inward of an inner surface of the outer housing to define a gap. The inner wall has an impingement side facing the axis and a non-impingement side facing the gap. At least one heat transfer element is positioned within the gap and in is contact with at least one of the inner surface of the outer housing and the non-impingement side of the inner wall to transfer heat through the inner wall to the impingement side to reduce spray deposit formation.
