Abstract
A mixer for a vehicle exhaust system includes an upstream baffle with at least one inlet opening configured to receive engine exhaust gas, a downstream baffle with at least one outlet opening configured to conduct engine exhaust gases to a downstream exhaust component, and an outer peripheral wall surrounding the upstream and downstream baffles and defining a mixer central axis. An intermediate plate is positioned between the upstream and downstream baffles to block direct flow from the inlet opening to the outlet opening. The intermediate plate initiates a rotational flow path that directs exhaust gases exiting the inlet opening through a rotation of more than 360 degrees about the mixer central axis before exiting the outlet opening.
