  • Patent number: 8651731
    Abstract: The invention relates to a dynamic mixer for viscose components in particular for the mixing of dental compositions, with a rotor (30) and a housing (2), which has front inlet openings (12, 13) for the components and at least one rear outlet opening (20) and the inner space of which includes a pre-chamber (17) and a main chamber (22), with the pre-chamber (17) opening into the main chamber (22) in a distal, tapering transition section (16). For the precise regulation of the concentration of the components to be mixed of the supplied components even with temporary concentration fluctuations of the same and in order to achieve a high degree of homogenization, it is proposed that the dynamic mixer (1) has at least one individual channel (23a-d) as a passage from the pre-chamber (17) into the main chamber (22), with the width of the individual channel (23a-d) extending over a part of the periphery of the transition section (16).

  • Publication number: 20070248744
    Abstract: A method is proposed for the determination of process parameters in a thermal spraying process, in which particles are melted or made plastic or vaporized by means of a thermal spraying apparatus (1) and are transported by a flow of fluid (G) to a substrate (6). In said method an operating model is constructed for the thermal spraying process or for the thermal spraying apparatus, with which a simulation of the thermal spraying process can be done and which includes a flow mechanical model and also an electromagnetic model, wherein the flow mechanical model and the electromagnetic model are coupled together and at least one process parameter is determined by means of the operating model.
