Abstract:
1. A mixing head assembly comprising: a housing having an input mix chamber passageway and an output passageway, the input mix chamber passageway communicating with the output passageway; a first input for injecting a first fluid into the input mix chamber passageway, the first input including a first nozzle configured to inject the first fluid into the input mix chamber passageway; and a second input for injecting second fluid into the input mix chamber passageway whereby the second fluid can mix with the first fluid to form a mixed fluid; the input mix chamber passageway including an input annular cross section with an input axis; and the outlet passageway including an outlet annular cross section with an outlet axis; wherein an angle between the input axis and the outlet axis is from about 89° to about 80°; the second input includes a second nozzle configured to inject the second fluid into the input mix chamber passageway; the first nozzle is configured to inject the first fluid into the input mix chamber passageway along a first axial line; the second nozzle is configured to inject the second fluid into the input mix chamber passageway along a second axial line; and the first axial line and the second axial line are not co-linear; and a line perpendicular to the first axial line is not parallel to a longitudinal axis of the input mix chamber passageway and a line perpendicular to the second axial line is not parallel to the longitudinal axis of the input mix chamber passageway.
