Mixing, degree

On the other hand, the polynomial + 1 is of mixed degree, that is, not homogeneous of any degree. See Exercise 1.9. 

However, the mixing degree is not higher than for 90° phase pulsing, but actually slightly lower [26], Nonetheless, 180° phase operation has distinct advantages. Only by this operation is a constant, time-invariant outlet flow achieved, which is important when the mixed flow has to enter a downstream microfluidic element. 

Fig. 38. Relation between degree of mixing and number of revolutions for various conditions of baffling. 20 cm. X 40 cm. horizontal cylinder rotating at 25 rpm. Black and white particles of about 1.3 mm. diameter mixed. Degree of mixing measured photometrically. Total weight of solid is 8 kg. h = height of baffle plate, R = radius of cylinder (04).

The mixing effect of the flow systems defined above was characterized by the mixing degree. It had been determined from the concentration distribution of tracer particles introduced into the feeding section.
