Abstract: A mechanical emulsifying apparatus makes oil/water emulsions without chemicals and without moving parts. Oil is pumped at a nominal pressure axially into an emulsifying stack of alternately clockwise and anticlockwise abrupt-reversal helical spin-reversing helix disks, with integrally machined separator necks. The stack transfers partially emulsified oil/water mix from one helical disk to the next. Water is introduced directly into the emulsifying stack (for heavy oil, from the side) at a pressure higher than the oil pressure, to shear into the oil stream. The oil/water stream, as it penetrates the oil stream, follows a spin-reversing flow path through the stack. Each disk is cut with a helical pathway, alternately clockwise or anticlockwise, and with a separator neck, for an abrupt transition at a nominal 135 degree angle. The oil and water streams, partially merged, strike the transition at the separator neck between helix disks. This reverses the helical flow abruptly.

Abstract: Holes are formed in boundary portions of a blade member between first blade sections which are spirally twisted in a clockwise direction, between second blade sections which are spirally twisted in a counterclockwise direction and/or between the first and second blade sections thereof. Thus, the blade sections are joined to each other at portions lying on both sides of the hole.

When the fluid flows along the spiral fluid path, it flows with a turning movement and moves between the center and the side wall of the tubular member.
