Abstract (en)
[origin: US7410288B1] A fluid mixing device ( 1 ) includes a chamber ( 3 ) and a bluff body ( 4 ) defining one end of the chamber ( 3 ). A first fluid inlet ( 5 ) is located toward an opposite end of the chamber ( 3 ) from the bluff body ( 4 ) and arranged to direct fluid toward the bluff body ( 4 ). A region substantially surrounding the bluff body ( 4 ) has a flow divider ( 8 ) defining second fluid inlet(s) ( 11 ) to the chamber ( 3 ) and mixed fluid outlets ( 12 ) from the chamber ( 3 ). A fluid flow from the first fluid inlet ( 5 ) and/or from the second fluid inlet ( 11 ) establishes a recirculating vortex system ( 14 ) within the chamber and results in a mixture of fluids from the first fluid inlet ( 5 ) and the second fluid inlet(s) ( 11 ) being directed through the mixed fluid outlets ( 12 ).
