Benefits of Admix Admixer CX
How the Admix Admixer CX Works
The Admixer CX utilizes a series of precisely engineered, stationary mixing elements within a pipe. These elements, typically elliptical or helical in shape, divide and reorient the fluid flow. In laminar flow, the elements repeatedly split and recombine the fluid streams, ensuring complete mixing regardless of viscosity, density, or velocity differences. In turbulent flow, the Admixer CX induces radial momentum and inertia reversal, eliminating stratification and temperature gradients. The smooth transitions and triangular risers connecting the elements minimize energy loss and prevent eddy dissipation. This design ensures uniform shear and approaches ideal plug flow, making it suitable for both blending miscible fluids and creating fine dispersions of immiscible fluids or gases.
While many geometric shapes are used to create homogeneous flow, the degree of energy and mixing efficiency is not addressed. Thus, by using an elliptical or helical shape, smooth transitions are possible and no energy is wasted in back mixing. Triangular risers are in use to connect the angled elliptical shapes to prevent eddy dissipation at the element edges.
When in laminar flow, two or more fluids will remain adjacent to each other indefinitely unless disrupted. Therefore, the mixing elements divide the fluids and reorient by 180 degrees, by reversing from left hand to right-hand orientation, the rapid reversal at the interface enhances the mixing effect.
