Design and Simulate Mixing of Compressed Natural Gas with Air in a Mixing Device

Gas mixer is a device used to determine the amount of natural gas and air before entering the engine. It injects the gas into the intake air stream of an internal combustion chamber using a combination of radial holes and radial tubes located around the perimeter of an air flow passage. The si...
