A passive fluid mixing system having one or more mixers each comprising a mixing chamber (12), a fluid entrance passageway (18) and a fluid exit passageway (20), the passageways being located at opposite ends of the chamber and displaced substantially 180°from each other and lying at least in part in common plane including the axis (13) of the chamber.

A passive fluid mixer comprising: a cylindrical mixing chamber, a fluid entrance passageway, a fluid exit passageway, the mixing chamber being adapted to receive fluid from the fluid entrance passageway and to produce a net fluid flow through the chamber to the exit passageway, the entrance passageway and the exit passageway being located at opposite ends of the cylindrical mixing chamber and at right angles to the axis of the chamber, the axis of the entrance passageway being an extension of a diameter of the cylindrical chamber to direct the flow of the fluid entering the chamber against the cylindrical wall of the chamber on the opposite side of the axis from that on which the entrance passageway is located whereby the flow is changed by the confines of the chamber such that its momentum superimposes upon the net fluid flow through the chamber a pattern of motion dominated by paired counter-rotating vortices.
