Working principle Verdermix static mixer

The static mixer uses the pump energy that is already available in your process lines.

The mixing priciple

1. By flow division and rotation of the fluid streams. This feature is frequently used in laminar streams, where Reynolds < 2000.
2. The mixers work by creating a rotational circulation around the hydraulic center of each element channel. This feature is present in both laminar and turbulent flow patterns.
The Verdermix static mixer is manufactured from a standard pipe or sanitary tube, in which a number of mixing elements have been mounted. These elements are welded together into a “chain”.

Reynolds number

Laminar flow occurs at low Reynolds numbers, where viscous forces are dominant and is characterized by smooth, constant fluid motion, wherea turbulent flow occurs at high Reynolds numbers and is dominated by inertial forces, which tend to produce random eddies, vortices and other flow fluctuations.

Laminar flow, sometimes known as streamline flow, occurs when a fluid flows in parallel layers with no disruption between the layers. In fluid dynamics, laminar flow is a flow regime characterized by high momentum diffusion, low momentum convection, pressure and velocity independent from time. It is the opposite of turbulent flow. In non-scientific terms laminar flow is "smooth," while turbulent flow is "rough."

Turbulent flow

In fluid dynamics, turbulence or turbulent flow is a flow regime characterized by chaotic, stochastic property changes. This includes low momentum diffusion, high momentum convection, and rapid variation of pressure and velocity in space and time.
