Abstract
An inline magnetic mixer for flowing fluids. A magnetic particle is contained within a flow tube through which a fluid passes. A coil made of electrically conductive material is positioned in close proximity to the flow tube and outside the flow tube. A low voltage, oscillating electrical supply energizes the coil. This sets up an oscillating magnetic field within the flow tube which causes the magnetic particle to oscillate longitudinally within the flow tube, thereby mixing the fluid stream passing through the flow tube.
