In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods provided herein are useful for dispensing a fluid, such as a thixotropic fluid. In some embodiments, a bottle having a closure cap includes a flip top, a base, and a disk, where the base and disk define a mixing chamber configured to facilitate mixing of any serum or liquid separated from the fluid back therein. In some configurations, the base has a central opening through which the fluid exits and an internal shaft with a non-planar end surface opposite the central opening. In some configurations, the non-planar end surface and the disk define channels between the mixing chamber and the internal shaft. In some embodiments, the disk includes a central opening, a plurality of partial annular openings through a planar surface of the disk, and projections extending into the mixing chamber.

A mixer and a method therein, including feeding a rotating flow of exhaust gas in a mixing pipe towards a turning end of a mixing chamber; dosing reactant by a doser against the rotating flow around a centreline of the mixing pipe; maintaining a guide around the doser such that a front face of the guide faces the rotating flow, and the guide defines a central opening surrounding the doser; guiding a side flow out of the rotating flow to a carrier flow around the doser via the central opening; and inhibiting by the guide turbulence from being transferred from the side flow to the carrier flow.

The invention relates to a system for hygienically reconstituting and delivering food preparations, such as drinks, comprising a metering and mixing device connected to a container containing a base liquid, in the form of a package configured to be connected to a base station. The metering and mixing device comprises a pump for metering the liquid, a diluent intake and a mixing chamber. Coupling means are provided for providing the diluent supply and the means for driving the liquid pump.

Described is a thermogravimetric analyzer system. The system includes an evaporator having first and second fluidic channels and a thermally controlled heater assembly. The first fluidic channel has a first channel inlet in fluidic communication with a gas supply module, a first channel outlet and an end portion extending from the first channel outlet. The second fluidic channel has a second channel inlet in fluidic communication with a source of liquid and a second channel outlet disposed on the first fluidic channel at a merge location between the first channel inlet and the first channel outlet. The end portion of the first fluidic channel includes a bend to redirect a flow within the first fluidic channel and improve a mixing of the gas and liquid received by the first and second fluidic channels, respectively.

A mixer for a gas flow system, such as an exhaust gas recirculation system, is provided. In one example, a gas flow system for an engine includes a first passage through which a first gas is configured to flow along a first axis; a second passage through which a second gas is configured to flow along a second axis, the first passage fluidly coupled to the second passage at an outlet of the first passage; and a mixer integrated with the first passage at the outlet and extending into the second passage, the mixer including an extension extending radially around the first axis and a main body extending into the second passage along the first axis.

A mixer for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine includes a mixer housing (40) with an inflow opening central axis (LE) and with an outflow opening (38). A first flow duct (48) following the inflow opening (24) in the mixer housing (40) and a second flow duct (50) lead parallel to one another to a third flow duct (54) and open into same. The third flow duct (54) leads to the outflow opening (38). The first flow duct (48) and the second flow duct (50) are provided between an outer wall (16) of the mixer housing (40) and a flow divider wall (36) enclosed by the outer wall (16), and the third flow duct (54) is enclosed by the flow divider wall (36).

The present application discloses an exhaust after-treatment mixing device including a housing and a mixing assembly located within the housing. The mixing assembly includes a first space, a second space and a third space. A top portion of the first space and a top portion of the second space are both in communication with the third space. The mixing assembly is provided with a first raised portion protruding upwardly into the third space and a second raised portion located below the first raised portion. A fourth space is formed between the first raised portion and the second raised portion. As a result, the distance and time for urea evaporation are increased and the uniformity of gas flow mixing is also improved.

Methods and systems are provided for transfecting cells using real-time, continuous transfection of cells. In some aspects, the methods can be applied for the continuous production of non-viral vector nucleic acid complexes. The systems and methods include a passive mixing fluidic module with at least two inlets, a plurality of mixing elements, and an outlet to provide a continuous flow of transfection complexes to a cell reactor.
