Mixer

A mixer mixes two input material streams ( $In1$ , $In2$ ) into the one output stream ( $Out$ ), as shown in the scheme below.

The output stream will be defined for all time points for which the streams $In1$ and $In2$ are defined. Mixing of more streams can be implemented by connecting of several mixers sequentially.

The parameters of output stream are calculated as:

$\dot{m}_{out} &= \dot{m}_{in1} + \dot{m}_{in2} \dot{H}_{out} &= \dot{H}_{in1} + \dot{H}_{in2} T_{out} &= f(h_{out}) = f \left( \frac{\dot{H}_{out}}{\dot{m}_{out}} \right) P_{out} &= min( P_{in1},P_{in2} )$

Note

Notations:

$\dot{m}$ – mass flow

$\dot{H}$ - enthalpy flow

$h$ - specific enthalpy

$T$ - temperature

$P$ - pressure

All secondary attributes of output stream, such as phase fractions, compounds fractions and multidimensional distributions are calculated depending on mass fractions of input streams.
