An exhaust gas aftertreatment system includes an exhaust gas conduit a mixer, and a plurality of flow disrupters. The exhaust gas conduit is centered on a conduit center axis and includes an inner surface. The mixer includes a mixer body and an upstream vane plate. The upstream vane plate has a plurality of upstream vanes. At least one of the upstream vanes is coupled to the mixer body. The flow disrupters are disposed downstream of the mixer and circumferentially around the conduit center axis. Each of the flow disrupters is coupled to the exhaust gas conduit or integrally formed with the exhaust gas conduit. Each of the flow disrupters extends inwardly from the inner surface.

Exhaust gas aftertreatment system

A mixing assembly for an exhaust aftertreatment system includes a mixing body, an upstream plate, a downstream plate, and a swirl plate. The mixing body includes an upstream mixing body opening and a downstream mixing body opening. The upstream mixing body opening is configured to receive exhaust gas. The upstream plate is coupled to the mixing body. The upstream plate includes a plurality of upstream plate openings. Each of the plurality of upstream plate openings is configured to receive a flow percentage that is less than 50% of the total flow of the exhaust gas. The downstream plate is coupled to the mixing body downstream from the upstream plate in a direction of exhaust gas flow. The downstream plate includes a downstream plate opening. The swirl plate is positioned between the upstream plate and the downstream plate and defines a swirl collection region and a swirl concentration region.
