ABSTRACT:
A mixing apparatus for a plurality of turbulently flowing fluid flows varying in temperature and/or composition includes a mixing chamber having a non-circular or predetermined cross section and a straight or curved center line. A plurality of single-conduit and parallel or radial deflector elements are disposed beside the mixing chamber and staggered in the direction of the center line. The deflector elements receive a fluid flow being oriented at an angle relative to the center line and staggered laterally. The deflector elements deflect the fluid flow tangentially into the mixing chamber. The mixing chamber has an outlet opening for the exit of a mixed fluid flow. In a gas-cooled, high-temperature nuclear reactor with a circular outline, the mixing apparatus has a horizontal, annular mixing chamber with a plurality of sectors. Horizontal annular conduits receive at least one fluid flow. A plurality of vertical conduits are disposed above the sectors and have upper ends connected to the horizontal annular conduits and lower ends connected to the mixing chamber. An outlet opening communicates with the mixing chamber. The sectors havie a plurality of bores formed therein in the vicinity of the outlet opening for receiving absorber material.
