Abstract
A flow homogeniser for insertion in a pipeline conveying a particulate material carried by a carrier fluid comprising a pipe having an inlet end and an outlet end and including a core defined by one or more core pipe sections connected in series between the inlet end and the outlet end, the or each core pipe section defining a relatively gradual or rapid change in cross-sectional area in order to mix particulate material and carrier fluid entering the inlet end to form a homogeneous mixture on exit from the outlet end.
