Abstract
A canister assembly for use in an exhaust gas aftertreatment device comprises a cylindrical shell defining a cylindrical axis, a radial direction, and a circumferential direction, a top end and a bottom end. A flow tube is inserted into the top end of the cylindrical shell and terminates short of the bottom end of the cylindrical shell, defining an exit of the flow tube. A mixing bowl member including a symmetrical annular shape about the cylindrical axis and defining a mixing bowl pocket is attached at the bottom end of the cylindrical shell.
