Abstract
A vehicle exhaust system includes an inlet module configured to receive engine exhaust gas and a mixer housing defining an internal cavity that receives engine exhaust gas from the inlet module. An injection component is positioned within the internal cavity and has a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet to direct injected fluid into the internal cavity to mix with the engine exhaust gas. The injection component defines an injection axis and includes an inner structure defining an inner gas flow path and an outer structure defining an outer gas flow path that is between the inner and outer structures and radially outward of the inner gas flow path to improve mixing at the fluid outlet. An outlet module is configured to direct a mixture of engine exhaust gas and fluid to a downstream exhaust component.
