# Industrial Specification: Mixing Chamber

## 1. Technical Definition
The core component of a pharmaceutical powder blending machine where active ingredients and excipients are uniformly mixed.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.1-2.0 bar absolute pressure, 20-60°C, 30-70% relative humidity**. Failure boundary: **Shear stress exceeding 15.7 kPa at 45° impeller angle, temperature surpassing 85°C glass transition point of PTFE seals, or pressure differential &gt;3.5 bar across seals**, Mechanism: **Triboelectric charging exceeding 10 kV/m causing electrostatic discharge ignition in explosive atmospheres (ATEX Zone 20), or laminar-turbulent transition at Reynolds number &gt;2300 creating segregation zones**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Hansen Solubility Distance (HSP)**:

> **Primary Equation**: $R_a = \sqrt{4\Delta\delta_d^2 + \Delta\delta_p^2 + \Delta\delta_h^2}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Predicts seal/gasket swelling when exposed to CIP chemicals.
