Abstract

An aerodynamic apparatus for mixing components of a fuel mixture comprises two cylindrical chambers--a main chamber and an auxiliary chamber--for swirling the flow of a gaseous component of a fuel mixture which is fed through at least one admission pipe arranged tangentially to the cylindrical surface of the chamber. The outlet pipes for the components are arranged in end walls coaxially with the chambers, and the end of the pipe of the auxiliary chamber is within the main chamber. The ratio of the inside diameters d.sub.1 /d.sub.2 of the outlet pipes for components ranges from 1 to 3.
