<p>The invention is an in-line mixer (10) with a generally conical shear head (11) pointed in the upstream direction within a pipe, and centered near the downstream side of an annular seating ring (15) fastened to the inside surface of the pipe. In the upstream, slanted face, or high pressure side of the shear head, there is a series of generally circular ports (16) bored through the shear head. The slanted face of the conical shear head (11) extends through the center of the seating ring (15) in the upstream direction, and is adjusted to be located very close, about 0.020 inches, to the downstream side of the seating ring. At the downstream end of the slanted face of the shear head is a first sharp, approximately 90 degree edge leading away from the inside surface of the pipe in the downstream direction, which first edge is adjusted about 0.0004 inches, to the inside surface of the pipe.</p> |
