Many technologies of the agro-industrial complex are associated with the need for a quality blending of two or more components. These include the processes of obtaining biodiesel fuel based on vegetable oils, obtaining aqueous emulsions of fats in the production of mixed fodders. In this process, the most effective is the use of a hydrodynamic mixer, the main design parameters of which are determined in the process of investigation. The design of a nozzle with a variable cross-sectional area is calculated, which allows to control the mixing process. The obtained mathematical dependences quite fully characterize the features of the work and the requirements for the design of the ejector installed in the hydrodynamic mixer to create cavitation with the required intensity.
