Concave Turbine Mixing Element
The shape of the Concave turbine enabled fluids and gasses to be mixed together, dispersed without the mixing element becoming unstable. This is due to the fact that is has a radial flow and is self-balancing. The “Channels” of this mixing element ensure that the gas flow is equally dispersed in the vessel.
The flow is discharged radially outward to the vessel wall with half the flow directed upward, and half the flow directed downward.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the shape of the Concave turbine mixing element?
The Concave turbine mixing element features a unique concave shape that effectively enables the mixing and dispersion of fluids and gases without becoming unstable. This design leads to radial flow and self-balancing properties that enhance mixing efficiency.
How does the mixing element ensure gas flow dispersion?
The mixing element has specially designed “Channels” that facilitate equal dispersion of gas flow within the vessel. This ensures that the gas is distributed uniformly, optimizing the mixing process and improving overall reaction efficiency.
What direction does the flow get discharged in the Concave turbine?
The flow from the Concave turbine is discharged radially outward towards the vessel wall. It is designed to direct half of the flow upward and the other half downward, which promotes effective mixing in the vessel.
What are the main benefits of using the Concave turbine?
The main benefits include enhanced mixing stability due to its self-balancing nature, efficient gas dispersion, and the ability to mix fluids and gases effectively without compromising element stability. This leads to improved performance in various applications.
