An object of this invention is to provide an exhaust gas purification device with which a decrease in reduction (denitrification) efficiency can be reduced. An exhaust gas purification device of this invention for a ship 1 includes: a reducing agent injector 61 of a reducing agent supply device supplying a reducing agent to an exhaust gas passing through an exhaust pipe of an engine 21 to be mounted in the ship; an exhaust mixer 62 mixing the exhaust gas and the reducing agent in a location downstream of the reducing agent injector 61 in an exhaust gas traveling direction; and selective catalytic reduction devices 34, 35 facilitating reduction of NOx in the exhaust gas of the engine 21 in a location downstream of the exhaust mixer 62 in the exhaust gas traveling direction. Multiple reducing agent injectors 61 are provided, and respectively have injection ports arranged at equal intervals along a circumferential direction of the exhaust pipe.

Aspects of the present disclosure provide various apparatus and methods. In some embodiments, an apparatus is provided for mixing a gas with a liquid. The apparatus may include a pipe having two ends. The pipe may provide a main fluid path and may have an interior surface having a first groove. The apparatus may also include a helical vane disposed inside the pipe. The vane may have a first projecting tongue that engages the first groove. The apparatus may also include a gas injection port on the pipe adapted to inject gas into the fluid path upstream of the helical vane. In some embodiments, the helical vane may be a 3D printed component.

An apparatus comprising a chamber enclosing a flow path of a first fluid and having a second inlet arranged downstream of the first inlet for receiving a second fluid. The apparatus further comprises a vertically adjustable throttle body an end portion comprising three parts, the first part being upstream of the second part, the third part being downstream of the second part, wherein, in an operating position, the second inlet is upstream of the third part of the throttle body and downstream of the first inlet and wherein the first part and the third part of the end portion are adapted to achieve a higher flow rate than the second part.

A mixer for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, for mixing a reactant with an exhaust gas flow, includes guide blade portions, fold webs and spacer webs. The guide blade portions are provided as guide blade pairs including a first blade portion connected to a second guide blade portion by at least one of the fold webs and folded at the at least one of the fold webs such that the first blade portion is disposed extending adjacent to and spaced from the second guide blade portion. Each of the guide blade pairs is connected to at least one adjacent guide blade pair by at least one of the spacer webs. The fold webs are disposed centrally and located adjacent to each other in an annular pattern of adjacent fold webs and the spacer webs are disposed peripherally spaced apart from each other about a circumference of the mixer.

A swirl mixer for mixing a reducing agent with exhaust gas in a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) aftertreatment system is described. The swirl mixer may comprise a base permitting a flow of the reducing agent and the exhaust gas therethrough, and three arrays of fins projecting from the base in a direction of flow of the exhaust gas. The three arrays of fins may be arranged in a triangular configuration about a center of the mixer to induce a swirl motion to the reducing agent and the exhaust gas flowing through the mixer. The fins in each of the arrays may be oriented in a common direction that is rotated by about 60 from the common direction of the fins in an adjacent array.

A fluid delivery system includes a flow agitator connected to a gas conduit and disposed within an internal cavity of the conduit at an upstream location with respect to a fluid injector. The flow agitator operates to separate the gas flow passing through the conduit during operation into a bypass flow, a control flow, and a main flow, such that a recombination of the bypass flow, the control flow, and the main flow downstream of the flow agitator creates an oscillation in the gas flow that also encompasses the fluid delivered into the internal cavity by the injector.

Various implementations include a fluid treatment device. The device includes an outer tube, an inner tube, a plurality of blades, and a media. The outer tube includes an inner surface. The inner tube is coaxially disposed within the outer tube. An outer surface of the inner tube and the inner surface of the outer tube define an annulus that axially extends between the ends of the inner tube. The plurality of blades is disposed within the annulus. The plurality of blades is configured to alter a component of a flow direction of fluid flowing over the blades in a circumferential direction and/or a radial direction. The media is disposed within the inner tube. The inner tube defines a plurality of perforations extending between its outer surface and inner surface. The annulus defines an entire flow path of fluid flowing between the outer tube and the inner tube.

A flow cell for use in a fluid management and/or processing system is disclosed, said flow cell comprising a body having an inlet and an outlet and a fluid flow channel extending from the inlet to the outlet. Said body further comprises a receptacle comprising a chamber forming a part of the fluid flow channel, said chamber comprising a first opening for connecting a functional element to the flow cell such that the functional element is in contact with or exposed to a fluid flow passing through the fluid flow channel. A first tubular connector is arranged adjacent to the inlet. A second tubular connector is arranged adjacent to the outlet. The flow cell further comprises a functional element and a fluid flow path extending from the first tubular connector through the inlet, the body, the receptacle, and the outlet, to the second tubular connector.
