Abstract
A combination of substantially unmixed fluid materials which are flowing under conditions which normally result in laminar (non-turbulent) flow are mixed by passing the fluids upwardly into a chamber containing a heavy ball which is levitated above the chamber inlet by the flow of the fluids, resulting in an intimate mixing of the fluids.
