Abstract: A static mixer includes a tubular body having a sidewall with an upstream end, a downstream end opposite the upstream end, and an inner surface. The upstream end has a surface defining an upstream opening into the body. The downstream end has a surface defining a downstream opening exiting the body. The upstream opening, the downstream opening, and inner surface define a passageway through the body for transport of a first fluid therethrough. A primary fin may depend from the inner surface of the body and into the passageway. The primary fin may have a curved fin with a flow surface. A secondary fin may extend into the passageway adjacent to the primary fin, the secondary fin may have a curved flow surface that curves opposite to the flow surface of the primary fin. The secondary fin may be offset upstream or downstream from the primary fin.

Abstract: A static mixing device for use within an open channel includes a mixing section with at least one set of stationary mixing vane members. The vane members are supported within a mixing section and include a plate member having a base edge supported by the base member, the plate member including an upstanding oblong tab with a leading edge extending upwardly and rearward from a forward corner of the base edge to a plate peak, the leading edge connecting with a curved trailing edge, the trailing edge extending downwardly and rearward to a rear corner of the base edge and a mixing cap supported on the trailing edge to promote mixing of the fluids within the fluid channel. The mixing device also includes an injection nozzle positioned upstream of the at least one vane member, at approximately the plate peak and operatively constructed to transport additives into the stream of fluid flow.

Abstract: A static mixing device for use within an open channel includes a mixing section with at least one set of stationary mixing vane members and at least one conical section. In one example, the at least one conical section is an inlet section positioned upstream of the mixing section, while in another embodiment the at least one conical section includes both an inlet section positioned upstream and an outlet section positioned downstream of the mixing section. A plurality of vane members are also supported within the mixing section to promote fluid mixing. When used in an open channel, the static mixer having at least one conical section has a lower head loss in a shorter distance downstream from the mixing device than other conventional static mixers. In addition, the mixer is self-contained and is easy to mount, lightweight, and less expensive to manufacture and maintain than conventional open channel mixers.
