More specifically, the present invention relates to a static mixer for mixing fluids or gases, and more specifically, maximizes the mixing efficiency of heterogeneous materials through a structure in which elements with a spiral curvature are continuously combined along the flow direction of the fluid or gas.

In particular, in the chemical industry, it refers to a series of processes ranging from simple mixing to complex chemical reactions in which the results of the reaction are greatly dependent on mixing performance. It happens.
한편, 혼합율의 저하는 요구치 이하로 반응속도를 크게 떨어뜨려 반응이 완결되기도 전에 반응을 종료시킬 수 있으며, 또한 불필요한 반응을 야기할 수도 있다. 혼합을 위한 대표적인 장치로는 기계적 교반기를 들 수 있으며, 이 외에도 기계적 교반기로부터 운동부 없이 파이프나 덕트 내에 장착되는 스태틱 믹서 등이 존재한다.On the other hand, a decrease in the mixing ratio may greatly reduce the reaction rate below the required value, which may terminate the reaction before it is completed, and may also cause an unnecessary reaction.

위 스태틱 믹서는 다양한 산업분야에서 공장 등의 원료 이송라인에 설치되어 각종 원료를 통과시키면서 혼합하는 용도로 사용되거나 혹은 열교환기에 설치되어 열교환 효율을 증대시키는 용도로 사용된다.The above static mixer is installed in a raw material transfer line in a factory, etc. in various industrial fields and is used to mix various raw materials while passing them, or is installed in a heat exchanger and is used to increase heat exchange efficiency.
이러한 스태틱 믹서는 1950년대부터 개발되기 시작하여 1960년대 말 Kenics社에서 개발한 믹서가 상업적으로 이용되기 시작한 이후 현재까지 대략 30여종 이상이 개발되었으나, 산업현장에서 실제로 이용되고 있는 종류는 그다지 많지 않다.These static mixers began to be developed in the 1950s, and since the mixer developed by Kenics began to be used commercially in the late 1960s, more than 30 types have been developed to date, but there are not many types that are actually used in industrial sites.
이 같은 Kenics형 스태틱 믹서에 의하면 내부 유로를 따라 유체가 이동시 유로의 중심부위에서는 단위 패널에 의해 난류가 형성되면서 유체의 혼합이 용이하게 이루어지지만, 미세한 틈새가 형성되는 단위 패널과 하우징의 내주면 사이에는 소위 '층류현상'이 나타나며, 층류현상에 의한 유체의 흐름은 하우징의 내주면을 따라 계속 이동하면서 하우징의 외부로 배출됨으로 전체적인 유체의 혼합효율을 저하시키는 원인으로 작용한다.According to this Kenics-type static mixer, when fluid moves along the internal flow path, turbulence is formed by the unit panel in the center of the flow path, making it easy to mix fluids, but between the unit panel and the inner circumference of the housing, where a fine gap is formed, The so-called 'laminar flow phenomenon' appears, and the fluid flow caused by the laminar flow phenomenon continues to move along the inner circumferential surface of the housing and is discharged to the outside of the housing, thereby reducing the overall fluid mixing efficiency.

The purpose of the invention is to provide a static mixer for mixing fluids or gases linked to a UVC advanced oxidation process that can easily mix dissimilar materials without rotating elements such as shafts or bearings or sealing devices.

The aim is to provide a static mixer for mixing fluids or gases linked to an oxidation process.

이와 더불어, 상기 방향전환 엘보우(60)의 일측과 타측 내부에 유체 또는 기체의 양을 정량 분할하는 분할대(62,64)가 양측이 서로 교차되는 방향으로 형성될 수 있다. 상기한 분할대(62,64)에 의하면 유체 또는 기체의 유동분할과 함께 유체 또는 기체의 스태틱 믹서 내 체류시간 분포를 균일화할 수 있게 된다.In addition, dividers 62 and 64 that divide the amount of fluid or gas into one side and the other side of the direction changing elbow 60 may be formed in a direction where both sides intersect each other. According to the above-mentioned dividing tables 62 and 64, it is possible to equalize the residence time distribution of the fluid or gas in the static mixer along with the flow division of the fluid or gas.
상기한 바와 같은 엘보우(60)의 구성이 부재할 경우를 가정하면, 가령 유체와 기체 혼합시 일반적인 스태틱믹서에서는 엘보우가 구비되는 위치에서 기체가 분산되지 않고 결합되어 기체의 접촉표면적이 줄어들면서 용해도의 증가효율이 낮아지게 된다.Assuming that the configuration of the elbow 60 as described above is absent, for example, in a typical static mixer when mixing fluid and gas, the gas is combined rather than dispersed at the location where the elbow is provided, reducing the contact surface area of the gas and reducing the solubility. The increase efficiency decreases.
반면 본 발명에서는 엘보우(60)의 구성이 구비됨에 따라, 스태틱 믹서의 기능이 추가되면서 기체의 분산효과를 지속시킬 수 있는 작용효과가 발생하게 된다.On the other hand, in the present invention, as the configuration of the elbow 60 is provided, the function of a static mixer is added, creating an effect that can sustain the dispersion effect of the gas.
한편, 상기 방향전환 엘보우(60)는 일측과 타측의 내경이 점진적으로 작아지거나, 또는 점진적으로 커지는 형상으로 이루어질 수 있으며, 이를 통해 유체 또는 기체의 유입속도, 유입량 등을 적절히 제어할 수 있다.Meanwhile, the direction change elbow 60 may be shaped so that the inner diameters of one side and the other side gradually become smaller or gradually larger, and through this, the inflow speed and amount of fluid or gas can be appropriately controlled.
본 발명의 다른 추가 실시예에 따른 스태틱 믹서는 도 5에 나타낸 바와 같이, 상기 제1엘리먼트부(10) 또는 제2엘리먼트부(20)의 끝단에 결합되는 'ㅗ'자 형상의 UV-C LED 결합 엘보우(70)를 더 포함할 수 있다. 이때, 상기 UV-C LED 결합 엘보우(70)의 유입구 내측과 전환구 내측에 유체 또는 기체의 양을 정량 분할하는 분할대(72,74)가 양측이 서로 교차되는 방향으로 형성될 수 있다.As shown in FIG. 5, the static mixer according to another additional embodiment of the present invention includes a 'ㅗ' shaped UV-C LED coupled to the end of the first element part 10 or the second element part 20. It may further include a coupling elbow (70). At this time, dividers 72 and 74 that divide the amount of fluid or gas into a fixed amount may be formed inside the inlet and the diversion port of the UV-C LED combination elbow 70 in a direction where both sides intersect each other.
상기 UV-C LED 결합 엘보우(70)에 의하면, 스태틱 믹서의 기능이 추가됨에 따라 기체의 분산효과를 지속시킬 수 있는 상승된 효과를 기대할 수 있다.According to the UV-C LED combination elbow 70, as the function of a static mixer is added, an increased effect of maintaining the dispersion effect of gas can be expected.
또한, 상기 UV-C LED 결합 엘보우(70)는 유입구와 전환구의 내경이 점진적으로 작아지거나, 또는 점진적으로 커지는 형상으로 이루어질 수 있으며, 이에 따라 앞서 기술한 방향전환 엘보우(60)와 마찬가지로 유체 또는 기체의 유입속도, 유입량 등을 적절히 제어할 수 있다.In addition, the UV-C LED coupling elbow 70 may be formed in a shape in which the inner diameters of the inlet and the divert port are gradually smaller or gradually larger, and thus, like the previously described direction change elbow 60, it can be used for fluid or gas. The inflow speed and amount of inflow can be appropriately controlled.
본 발명의 또 다른 추가 실시예에 따르면, 상기 UV-C LED 결합 엘보우(70)의 분할대(72,74) 중앙에는 원통형 UV-C LED가 삽입될 수 있도록 상기 UV-C LED의 외경 지름과 상응되는 내경 지름을 가진 UV-C LED 삽입구(76)가 형성될 수 있다.According to another additional embodiment of the present invention, the outer diameter of the UV-C LED and the outer diameter of the UV-C LED so that the cylindrical UV-C LED can be inserted are in the center of the dividers 72 and 74 of the UV-C LED combining elbow 70. A UV-C LED insertion hole 76 with a corresponding inner diameter can be formed.
한편, 본 발명의 스태틱 믹서는 엘리먼트(E1,E2,E3,E4)의 표면에 다수개의 천공홀을 형성시킬 수 있다. 엘리먼트(E1,E2,E3,E4)의 표면에 천공홀을 형성하는 이유는 유체 또는 기체의 원활한 흐름을 도모함과 동시에 이종물질간 혼합이 더욱 용이하게 이루어질 수 있도록 하기 위함이다. 다만, 엘리먼트(E1,E2,E3,E4)의 표면에 천공홀을 형성할 경우 각각의 엘리먼트의 천공 위치는 동일선상을 이루지 않도록 함이 바람직하다.Meanwhile, the static mixer of the present invention can form a plurality of drilled holes on the surfaces of the elements E1, E2, E3, and E4. The reason for forming perforated holes on the surface of the elements (E1, E2, E3, E4) is to promote smooth flow of fluid or gas and to facilitate mixing of different materials. However, when drilling holes are formed on the surfaces of the elements E1, E2, E3, and E4, it is desirable that the drilling positions of each element are not on the same line.
이하, 3D 설계 프로그램(UG NX, siemens社)을 이용하여 본 발명에 따른 엘리먼트를 설계하는 방법에 대하여 구체적으로 설명한다.Hereinafter, a method of designing an element according to the present invention using a 3D design program (UG NX, Siemens) will be described in detail.
