In an arrangement for mixing a first gas into a main flow of a second gas, comprising a main conduit for said main flow and a plurality of supply conduits for the first gas which open into said main conduit, the supply conduits are arranged as at least one set of three outlet openings. This set consists of a first opening which opens into the main flow perpendicularly to the main conduit wall and two second openings which are arranged so as each to provide a lesser flow rate of the first gas than the first opening and are offset with respect to the first opening. The three openings of the set thus direct the first gas into two contra-rotating circulatory movements, as viewed in the direction of the axis of the main conduit. This mixing arrangement is applicable for example to mixing a hot gas into the gas obtained from an ore pellet drying bed and to mixing a hot gas into a water-laden gas from a desulphurization plant.
In a conduit system having an arrangement for mixing a first gas into a main flow of a second gas, comprising a main conduit bounded by a wall for said main flow and a plurality of supply conduits for the first gas which open into said main conduit, the improvement that
A conduit system comprising a main conduit for a main flow of a gas having an axis and means for admixing a further gas into said main flow, said admixing means comprising a plurality of supply conduits having outlet openings for said further gas debouching into said main conduit, said outlet openings being arranged around the main conduit so as to provide at least one set thereof which consists of three outlet openings of which a first one debouches substantially radially with respect to the axis of the main conduit and the two others are adapted each to supply the said further gas at a flow rate which is less than the flow rate from said first outlet opening of the set, said second outlet openings being respectively arranged and located with respect to said first one so that in operation the three openings cooperate to direct the further gas into two mutually contra-rotating circulatory movements in said main conduit, as viewed in the axial direction of the main conduit.
