Definitions

  • an additive delivery system may utilize a cartridge system that provides improved flow geometries that enhance mixing of additive and base fluid as the additive and base fluid flow from the cartridge.
  • Such flow geometries may include a central flow component for the additive and a surrounding or radially displaced flow component for the base fluid. They may also include one or more convergence zone in the additive flow path.
