A fluid injector for the introduction, dispersion and mixing of a first fluid into a second fluid flowing through a conduit. The injector comprises an elongated body mounted in fluid-tight fashion through an aperture in the side of the conduit so as to extend transversely of the interior of the conduit and transversely of the flow of the second fluid therein. The injector body has an axial bore connectable at one end to a source of the first fluid under pressure and leading to at least one outlet bore extending transversely of the injector body and located within the conduit. The injector body has a transverse inlet bore within the conduit. One end of the inlet bore faces the flow of the second fluid within the conduit and the other end thereof communicates with the axial bore of the injector body upstream of the at least one outlet bore. A portion of the second fluid enters the inlet bore of the injector and is conducted to the axial bore of the injector to mix therein with the first fluid, the mixture being ejected into the flow of the second fluid within the conduit through the at least one injector outlet bore. Additional mixing of the first and second fluids occurs in the conduit as the result of turbulence therein caused by the presence of the injector and taking place immmediately downstream of the injector.
A fluid injector for the introduction, dispersion and mixing of a first fluid into a second fluid flowing through a conduit, said fluid injector comprising an elongated body mounted in fluid tight fashion through an aperture in the side of said conduit with a first portion and first end of said body located within said conduit and a second portion and second end of said body located exteriorly of said conduit, said first portion of said body extending transversely of the interior of said conduit and transversely of said flow of said second fluid therein, said injector body having a bore extending axially thereof from said second body end and connectable at said second body end to a source of said first fluid under pressure said axial bore communicating with at least one outlet bore extending transversely of said injector body and located within said conduit near the center thereof, said injector body having a transverse inlet bore within said conduit, one end of said inlet bore facing said flow of said second fluid within said conduit and the other end of said inlet bore communicating with said axial bore of said injector body ahead of said at least one outlet bore, whereby a portion of said second fluid enters said inlet bore of said injector and is conducted to said axial bore of said injector to mix therein with said first fluid, the mixture being ejected into the flow of second fluid within the conduit through the at least one injector outlet bore.
