Quantifying Mixing using Magnetic Resonance Imaging [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Visualized Experiments, 2012
Mixing is a unit operation that combines two or more components into a homogeneous mixture. This work involves mixing two viscous liquid streams using an in-line static mixer. The mixer is a split-and-recombine design that employs shear and extensional flow to increase the interfacial contact between the components.
