Passive multi-fluid mixer
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of mixers, and particularly relates to a passive multi-fluid mixer.
Background
The mixer is a machine for mixing objects with different properties together, so that different materials are fully mixed.
Mixers currently on the market can be broadly divided into active and passive types.
Generally, the active mixer has a complex structure, and usually uses additional power such as a motor to drive the rotor to stir the mixed fluid to increase the disturbance, thereby achieving the purpose of uniform mixing. Mixers of this type are subject to a number of limitations in use, for example the mixer must be energised in use; the mixer must be placed right when in use; mixing while not heating or cooling; the mixer is subject to its own size constraints when in use.
The passive mixers are developed into various passive mixers such as a layered mixer, a T-type mixer, a C-type mixer and the like, the mixers mostly depend on the complexity of a mixing channel to increase disturbance to mixed fluid to achieve the purpose of mixing, and the method has the advantages of longer mixing channel, low mixing efficiency, large flow resistance loss, relatively complex structure and inconvenient maintenance.

the invention has simple structure, easy processing and low cost, and the core part is a circumferential vortex generator which can simultaneously mix 2 or more than 2 fluids. And the mixed fluid may be heated or cooled while mixing. The invention utilizes special rotational flow and backflow structure, when the mixed fluid flows into the inlet, after a part of fluid is acted by the flow deflector, the fluid is accelerated due to the reduction of the flow area; and because of the action of the guide vanes, the flow direction of the fluid is changed to generate circumferential vortex, and the fluid disturbance is very severe. The other part of the fluid flows through the hollow cylinder, the fluid is accelerated due to the reduction of the flow area, and when the fluid flows out of the hollow cylinder, a reverse pressure gradient is generated due to the fact that the fluid does not flow downstream of the hollow cylinder, and therefore axial backflow is generated. Under the combined action of the circumferential vortex and the axial backflow, the fluid is fully mixed.

Detailed Description
The invention is further explained below with reference to the drawings.
A passive multiple fluid mixer as shown in fig. 1 comprises a housing 3 and a circumferential swirl generator. The housing 3 is a hollow cylinder with openings at both ends. The circumferential swirl generator comprises a cylindrical shaft 4 and a deflector 5. The cylindrical shaft 4 and the shell 3 are coaxially arranged, and the flow deflectors 5 are uniformly arranged on the side surface of the cylindrical shaft. The width of the deflector 5 is the difference between the inner diameter of the housing 4 and the outer diameter of the cylindrical shaft. The cylindrical shaft is provided with a through hole along the axis direction.
The guide vane can be rectangular or fan-ring shaped in cross section. When the cross section of the flow deflector is rectangular, the axial length K of the flow deflector along the cylindrical shaft meets K belonging to [7d, 13d ], and the thickness delta belonging to [0.3d, 0.5d ] of the flow deflector; when the cross section of the guide vane is a fan ring, the radius r of the guide vane is equal to [20d, 30d ], and d is the inner diameter of the through hole of the cylindrical shaft.
The included angle alpha epsilon between the flow deflectors and the axis of the cylindrical shaft is 20 degrees and 70 degrees, and the number of the included angle alpha epsilon is preferably 5-20.
As shown in FIG. 2, the dimensions of the shell satisfy that the inner diameter of the shell is [8d, 12d ], the outer diameter of the shell is [8.3d, 12.5d ], the length of the shell is [30d, 50d ], and d is the inner diameter of the through hole of the cylindrical shaft.
As shown in FIG. 4, the cylindrical shaft outer diameter ψ e [3d, 7d ], the cylindrical shaft length l e [8d, 14d ], where d is the cylindrical shaft through-hole inner diameter.
When the mixing device works, the fluid to be mixed flows into the inlet, and after a part of the fluid is acted by the flow deflector, the fluid is accelerated due to the reduction of the flow area; because of the action of the flow deflector, the flowing direction of the fluid is changed to generate circumferential vortex, and the fluid disturbance is very violent; and the other part of the fluid flows through the hollow cylinder, the fluid is accelerated due to the reduction of the flow area, when the fluid flows out of the hollow cylinder, a reverse pressure gradient is generated due to the fact that the fluid does not flow downstream of the hollow cylinder, so that axial backflow is generated, and the fluid is fully mixed under the combined action of the circumferential vortex and the axial backflow, as shown in fig. 7.
The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, various modifications and decorations can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these modifications and decorations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
