Device For Mixing Fluids

An apparatus comprising;

• a first housing including:
• a part with a segment with an inner cylindrical shape segment and a segment with an inner conical shape and wherein both segments have a common axis of symmetry;
• an insert with a conical outer surface corresponding to the housing segment with the inner conical shape segment and having an axis of symmetry;
• and
• when the insert is inserted into a first housing segment with an inner conical shape such that their axes of symmetry coincide, the inner conical shape of the first housing segment and the conical outer surface of the insert form a conical channel/gap with a ring cross section;
• a second housing including;
• at least one second fluid inlet and a fluid input channel oriented at an angle to the common axis of symmetry;
• a swirl chamber in communication with a second fluid input channel and a second fluid conducting channel with an axis collinear (coaxial) to the common axis of the first housing;
• a bushing with at least one segment with an inner cylindrical shape and axis of symmetry collinear (coaxial) with the common axis of symmetry;
• an insert with a conical outer surface segment and a cylindrical segment;
• and
• when the insert is inserted into the bushing such that their axes of symmetry coincide the outer cylindrical segment of the insert and the cylindrical segment of the bushing form a channel/gap with a ring cross section;
• and
• a collector communicating with the conical channel/gap with a ring cross section and the channel/gap with a ring cross section.

Apparatus comprising:

• a cylindrical housing having a first fluid inlet at one end and a fluid outlet at a second end and at least one second fluid inlet in the housing wall and accommodating two or more components arranged in series and sharing a common central longitudinal axis, the components comprising:
• at least one ring-shaped mixing chamber the outer wall of which defined by a portion of the cylindrical housing wall and being in communication with the fluid outlet;
• at least one first conical deflector having an external surface and an internal surface and operative to accept a first fluid flow entering the apparatus via the first inlet and to diverge the flow along the external surface into the mixing chamber;
• at least one collector having at least one channel in communication with the at least one second fluid inlet and operative to divert a second fluid flow entering the apparatus via the second fluid inlet in a direction coaxial with and opposite to the first fluid flow entering the apparatus;
• at least one second conical deflector having at least an external surface and operative to accept the second fluid flow from the collector and to diverge the flow along the external surface thereof and onto the internal surface of the first conical deflector so that to mix with the first fluid flow in the mixing chamber.
