Abstract

Emulgiervorrichtung umfassend eine rohrförmige Emulgierkammer (1) mit einer Rohrwandung und zwei Endbereichen (2, 4) für eine wendelförmige Strömung (8) mit einer wendelförmiger Strömungsrichtung, mindestens eine Einmündung (3) für ein Fluidgemisch aus zwei nicht mischbare Fluidfraktionen in die Emulgierkammer an dem ersten Endbereich (2) sowie mindestens eine Ausmündung (5) für das Fluidgemisch aus der Emulgierkammer an dem zweiten Endbereich (4), wobei die Emulgierkammer (1) zwischen den beiden Endbereichen (2, 4) einen um eine Symmetrieachse (6) symmetrischen Querschnitt aufweist, wobei die Ausmündungen (5) und die Einmündungen (3) in Strömungsrichtung tangential oder in spitzen Winkel zu einem diesen unmittelbar umgebenden Rohrwandungbereich in die Emulgierkammer aus- bzw. einmünden. Die Aufgabe besteht darin, eine Emulgiervorrichtung mit erhöhter Effizienz vorzuschlagen, die ohne bewegte Teile auskommt. Die Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, dass die Symmetrieachse (6) und die Emulgierkammer mindestens einen gekrümmten Bereich aufweisen.

Figure imgaf001
An emulsifying device comprising a tubular emulsifying chamber (1) having a tube wall and two end sections (2, 4) for a helical flow (8) with a helical flow direction, at least one confluence (3) for a fluid mixture of two immiscible fluid fractions into the emulsifying chamber at the first end region (2) and at least one orifice (5) for the fluid mixture from the emulsification chamber at the second end region (4), the emulsification chamber (1) between the two end regions (2, 4) having a symmetrical cross section about an axis of symmetry (6) wherein the orifices (5) and the junctions (3) in the flow direction tangentially or at an acute angle to a directly surrounding this tube wall area in the emulsifying chamber or open. The object is to propose an emulsifier with increased efficiency, which manages without moving parts. The object is achieved in that the symmetry axis (6) and the emulsifying chamber have at least one curved region.
