Abstract:
The invention concerns a device for generating liquid systems, in particular emulsions, de suspensions or the like, in a cavitation field. The device comprises a housing (1, 18, 32) having input and output openings (2; 3) for the supply of at least one component flow and the removal of the system. The housing (1, 18, 32) further has a confuser (4), a through-flow chamber (5, 20), which is equipped with a cavitator (7, 17), and a diffuser (6) coupled in succession. The object of the invention is to provide a suitable cavitator and a suitable design for generating and controlling a high intensity for the cavitation field. This object is achieved in that the cavitator (7, 17) is in the form of a truncated cone having at least one cavity (10, 26) through which a flow can pass. A component flow from at least one cavity (10, 26) and the component flow impinging of the cavitator (7, 17) mix downstream of the cavitator (7, 17). Preferably two through-flow chambers (20, 5) are coupled to a cavitator (17, 7) in order to generate a fluid cavitated system of which part is returned in a controllable manner to the cavitator (17) which is flowed towards first.
