Abstract
The invention concerns a mixing system for mixing two liquids at the inlet to the headbox of a paper machine with: an inlet line (A) for the first partial volume flow (a); an inlet line (B) for the second partial volume flow (b); an outlet line (C) for the mixture volume flow (c) with the flow resistance (W); a mixing angle (.alpha.) with the inlet line (A) and the inlet line (B); a main flow angle (.beta.) between the inlet line (A) and outlet line (C); a valve (S) installed in the inlet line (B) for control of the partial volume flow (b). The mixing angle (.alpha.) is selected so that the mixture volume flow (c) remains constant, independent of the partial volume flow (b).
Claims10
A mixing system for mixing two liquids at the inlet to a headbox of a paper machine, said two liquids received by said mixing system at first and second partial volume flow rates respectively and discharged from said mixing system at a mixture volume flow rate, said mixing system comprising:
- a first inlet line for receiving one of the two liquids at the first partial volume flow rate;
- a second inlet line for receiving the other of the two liquids at the second partial volume flow rate;
- an outlet line for transporting said two liquids at the mixture volume flow rate;
- a first flow resistance disposed in said outlet line;
- and
- a valve disposed in said second inlet line for controlling the second partial volume flow rate;
- said first inlet line disposed relative to said second inlet line at a mixing angle (.alpha.), said first inlet line disposed relative to said outlet line at a main flow angle (.beta.), said mixing angle (.alpha.) selected whereby the mixture volume flow rate remains constant and is independent of said second partial volume flow rate.
