A mixing apparatus has a chamber, a shaft extending into the chamber, a motor drivingly interconnected to the shaft, a nozzle support affixed to the shaft and extending outwardly therefrom within the chamber, and a nozzle having an interior passageway affixed to the nozzle support such that the nozzle moves in the chamber as the motor drivingly rotates the shaft. The chamber has a multi-phase fluid therein. A flow restrictor is affixed to an inner wall of said chamber so as to extend inwardly therefor. The flow restrictor is a plurality of flat panels arranged in spaced relation around the interior of the chamber and within a liquid phase of the multi-phase fluid.

I claim: 1. A mixing apparatus for a multi-phase fluid at constant temperature and pressure, eliminating siphoning, vacuum, cavitation, pumping and differential pressure factors, said mixing apparatus comprising: a chamber; a shaft extending into said chamber; a motor drivingly interconnected to said shaft so as to rotate said shaft in said chamber; a nozzle support affixed to said shaft and extending outwardly therefrom within said chamber; and a first nozzle having a body with an interior passageway, said interior passageway having an inlet at one end of said body and an outlet at or adjacent to an opposite end of said body, said first nozzle affixed to said nozzle support such that said first nozzle moves in said chamber as said motor drivingly rotates said shaft, said body being a tubular body with a tube section and a frustoconical section extending so as to widen toward said outlet from said tube section, said first nozzle moving through a hydraulic fluid of said multi-phase fluid such that said hydraulic fluid is channeled through said interior passageway at a same rate that said nozzle moves through said hydraulic fluid, said body having an longitudinal metal coupon extending around said interior passageway inwardly of said inlet of said interior passageway, said inlet of said interior passageway being tapered so as to narrow toward said interior passageway; and a flow restrictor positioned in said chamber adjacent said inner wall of said chamber. 2. The mixing apparatus of claim 1, further comprising: a metal coupon affixed to said body at said opposite end and over a portion of said outlet. 3. The mixing apparatus of claim 2, said metal coupon being a square planar piece, said metal coupon having corners affixed to said opposite end of said body, said metal coupon having edges between said corners defining outlet spaces with said opposite end of said body. 4. The mixing apparatus of claim 1, said body having a locking ring affixed to said opposite end thereof, said metal coupon secured to said locking ring. 5. The mixing apparatus of claim 1, further comprising: a second nozzle having a body with an interior passageway, said interior passageway having an inlet at one end of said body and an outlet at or adjacent to an opposite end of said body, said second nozzle affixed to said nozzle support such that said second nozzle moves in said chamber as said motor drivingly rotates said shaft, said body being a tubular body with a tube section and a frustoconical section extending so as to widen toward said outlet from said tube section, said second nozzle moving through said hydraulic fluid of said first nozzle of said multi-phase fluid such that said hydraulic fluid is channeled through said interior passageway at a same rate that said nozzle moves through said hydraulic fluid, said body having an longitudinal metal coupon extending around said interior passageway inwardly of said inlet of said interior passageway, said inlet of said interior passageway being tapered so as to narrow toward said interior passageway. 6. The mixing apparatus of claim 5, said second nozzle positioned diametrically opposite said first nozzle relative to said shaft. 7. The mixing apparatus of claim 5, said shaft extending vertically into said chamber, said nozzle support extending transversely to said shaft, the first and second nozzles positioned in a common horizontal plane. 8. The mixing apparatus of claim 5, said inlet of said first nozzle facing in an opposite direction to that of said inlet of said second nozzle. 9. The mixing apparatus of claim 5, said nozzle support having a first clamp at one end thereof and a second clamp at an opposite end thereof, said first clamp receiving said first nozzle therein, said second clamp receiving said second nozzle therein. 10. The mixing apparatus of claim 5, said first nozzle having a spacer affixed therearound, said inlet longitudinal metal coupon having an end abutting said spacer. 11. The mixing apparatus of claim 1, said outlet of said interior passageway expanding into a cavity at an end of said frustoconical section. 12. The mixing apparatus of claim 1, said flow restrictor comprising: a panel extending radially inwardly of said inner wall. 13. The mixing apparatus of claim 1, said flow restrictor comprising: a first panel affixed to said inner wall of said chamber; and a second panel affixed to said inner wall of said chamber diametrically opposite said first panel. 14. The mixing apparatus of claim 13, further comprising: a third panel affixed to said inner wall of said chamber; and a fourth panel affixed to said inner wall of said chamber diametrically opposite said third panel. 15. The mixing apparatus of claim 14, said first panel and said second panel and said third panel and said fourth panel being separated at 90° intervals around said chamber. 16. The mixing apparatus of claim 12, said panel being a planar member extending transverse to said inner wall of said chamber. 17. The mixing apparatus of claim 1, said chamber having a multi-phase fluid therein, said flow restrictor being located in a liquid phase of said multi-phase fluid. 18. The mixing apparatus of claim 17, said flow restrictor positioned entirely within said liquid phase of said multi-phase fluid.
