Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of fluid mixing, and in particular to a microchannel fluid processing device and a fluid mixing method. Background Art

[0002] Mixing different fluids is common in the cosmetics, food, coatings, electronic slurries, rubber plastics, fine chemicals and other industries. Compared with the mixing of fluids with similar viscosities, the mixing of fluids with large viscosity differences faces greater difficulties. This is because fluids with large viscosity differences have large surface tension and rheological properties, making it difficult to achieve rapid mixing in a low-pressure resistance manner at the microscopic level. Studies have shown that combining ultrasound with microchannels is a method for achieving continuous mixing of fluids with different viscosities. For example, patent CN201410102972.1 combines an ultrasonic transducer with a fluid pipeline, uniformly introduces ultrasonic energy into the fluid pipeline, and uses the ultrasonic cavitation effect to generate a large number of micron-sized cavitation bubbles in the fluid macro, thereby effectively enhancing the mixing of liquids.

[0003] However, in industrial production, fluid pumping often fluctuates, such as the fluctuation of the pumping flow of a peristaltic pump over time, or the fluctuation of the material density over time caused by the presence of discontinuous phases such as bubbles in the material. Traditional ultrasonic microchannel mixers are mainly based on plug flow, which can achieve rapid and uniform mixing of materials in the radial direction (perpendicular to the flow direction), but cannot achieve effective back mixing in the axial direction, and thus cannot effectively compensate for the fluctuation of the fluid feed, resulting in fluctuations in the performance of the export product.

[0069] In the present application, the radiator includes radiating the mixing chamber with sound energy. For parameters such as the power of radiation, those skilled in the art can make appropriate selections according to the combination of fluids to be mixed. More specifically, the radiator used in the present embodiment is an ultrasonic transducer. Preferably, the ultrasonic transducer has an operating frequency of 10 to 50 Hz, such as 10 Hz, 15 Hz, 20 Hz, 25 Hz, 30 Hz, 35 Hz, 40 Hz, 45 Hz, 50 Hz, or any value and range therebetween, and a power of 100 to 300 W, such as 100 W, 150 W, 200 W, 250 W, 300 W, or any value and range therebetween.

[0074] In some specific embodiments, the viscosity difference between the high viscosity fluid and the low viscosity fluid is at least 100 cp.

[0075] Fluids with large viscosity differences have large surface tension and rheological property differences, making it more difficult to achieve rapid mixing at the microscopic level. Therefore, this application uses fluids with large viscosity differences as an example to verify the mixing performance of the above-mentioned microchannel fluid processing device, but the above-mentioned microchannel fluid processing device is not limited to mixing fluids with large viscosity differences, and fluids with similar or identical viscosities can achieve better mixing effects.

[0077] When the fluid has different viscosities, the fluid can enter the mixing chamber at different flow rates. The flow rate of the fluid with higher viscosity (such as high viscosity fluid) can be 1-50 ml / min, and the flow rate of the fluid with lower viscosity (such as low viscosity fluid) can be 1-200 ml / min.

[0078] During mixing, different fluids can be combined through a T-type tee or a Y-type tee and then enter the mixing chamber 10 from the feed channel 20 , and then flow out from the discharge channel 30 after mixing.

[0079] The present application also provides a microchannel fluid processing device as described above or a product prepared by the method as described above.

[0080] In some specific embodiments, the product has low performance fluctuation.

[0081] In some specific embodiments, the coefficient of variation (C·V value) of the product is less than 10%, for example, it can be 9.9%, 9.5%, 9.0%, 8.5%, 8.0%, 7.5%, 7.0%, 6.5%, 6.0%, 5.5%, 5.0%, 4.5%, 4.0%, 3.5%, 3.0%, 2.5%, 2.0%, 1.5%, 1.0%, 0.5%, 0.1%, or any value and range therebetween, preferably less than 5%.

[0082] In some specific embodiments, the dosage form of the product can be, for example, a cream, a lotion, a gel, etc.

[0083] Through the above-mentioned microchannel fluid processing device provided by the present application, as shown in the results of the following Examples 1 to 19 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2, the coefficient of variation (C·V value) of Examples 1 to 19 is less than 10%, preferably less than 5%, which indicates that the above-mentioned microchannel fluid processing device provided by the present application is capable of fully mixing different fluids, especially high-viscosity fluids and low-viscosity fluids with large viscosity differences, effectively compensating for fluctuations in fluid feed, and reducing performance fluctuations of the fluid flowing out of the discharge channel 30.

[0084] Example

[0085] Table 1 shows the specifications of the microchannel fluid processing device used in the following Examples 1 to 19 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2. Among them, the mixing chambers of Examples 1 to 19 and Comparative Example 1 all include parallel upper and lower main surfaces, and side walls, the height of which (the distance between the upper and lower main surfaces) is 8 mm. The side walls of Examples 1 to 19 are surrounded to form an ellipse, and the structure is shown in FIG. Figure 1 to Figure 3 , parameters are detailed in Table 1. The side walls of Comparative Example 1 are surrounded to form a square with no eccentricity. Comparative Example 2 is a straight tube with no eccentricity. The diameter of the feed channel and the discharge channel in the microchannel fluid processing device used in Examples 1 to 19 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2 is 5 mm. In Comparative Example 1, the ultrasonic transducer is arranged on the side wall of the square and is perpendicular to the inlet and outlet connection line. In Comparative Example 2, the ultrasonic transducer is arranged on the channel wall and is perpendicular to the length direction of the channel.

[0086] The following experiments were conducted using the microchannel fluid processing devices of Examples 1 to 19 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2.

[0087] A constant flow plunger pump (model: JJRZ-10004F, manufactured by Hangzhou Jingjin Technology Co., Ltd.) is used to transport high-viscosity fluid (10% concentration of PVA (polyvinyl alcohol, model P105124-2.5kg, manufactured by Aladdin Company) aqueous solution, viscosity of 1080cp), and the flow rate is set to 9ml / min; a peristaltic pump (model: dPOFLEX GPH01, manufactured by Lange Constant Flow Pump Co., Ltd.) is used to transport low-viscosity fluid (deionized water, viscosity of 1cp), the peristaltic pump speed is 6rpm (accompanied by a flow fluctuation of 0.1Hz), and the average flow rate is 9ml / min. The two fluids are contacted through a T-type three-way and enter the mixing chamber through the feed channel. The mixing chamber shell is made of stainless steel (for Comparative Example 2, there is only one pipeline). The ultrasonic transducer is arranged on the mixing chamber as shown in the figure. The shell of the ultrasonic transducer is made of titanium alloy, the radiation unit is piezoelectric ceramic, the operating frequency is 20kHz, and the power is 150W.

[0088] After the experimental device has been running for 5 minutes, samples are taken from the discharge channel to test the mixing effect. Samples are taken every 18 seconds, each sample is 5 seconds, about 1.5 mL, and a total of 6 samples are taken. Each sample is weighed to obtain the weight Mi. The sample is then placed in an oven at 105°C to dry, remove moisture, and obtain the mass Ni of PVA in each sample. In this way, the mass fraction of PVA in each sample can be obtained Ci = Ni / Mi. According to the standard deviation σ and the average value of the mass fraction Ci of PVA in the 6 samples Calculate its coefficient of variation (C·V value):

[0089]

[0090] The C·V value reflects the fluctuation of PVA concentration in each sample, and the smaller the C·V, the smaller the fluctuation.

[0091] The C·V values ​​of Examples 1 to 19 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2 are shown in Table 1.

[0092] Table 1: Mixing chamber parameters and detection C·V values

[0093]

[0094]

[0095] Note:

[0096] In Examples 1 to 19, a is the length of the major semi-axis of the ellipse, and in Comparative Example 1, a is half the length of the side of the square;

[0097] d is the diameter of the area equivalent circle of the radiating surface of the ultrasonic transducer;

[0098] e is the eccentricity of the ellipse;

[0099] “-” means there is no such data.

[0100] From the detected C·V values ​​of the above Examples 1 to 19 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2 shown in Table 1, it can be clearly seen that the microchannel fluid processing device provided by the present application can fully mix different fluids (especially fluids with large viscosity differences, such as high-viscosity fluids and low-viscosity fluids), compared with microchannel fluid processing devices with other structures (such as the mixing chamber in Comparative Example 1 having a square structure) or a solution without a mixing chamber (Comparative Example 2), and can effectively compensate for the fluctuation of the fluid feed, so that the performance fluctuation of the fluid flowing out of the discharge channel is smaller.
