Chaotic characteristics and mixing performance of pseudoplastic fluids in a stirred tank

A Study on Liquid-liquid Mixing in a Stirred Tank with a 6-Blade Rushton Turbine

The turbulent flow field generated in a baffled stirred tank was computed by large eddy simulation (LED) and the flow field was developed using the Sliding Mesh (SM) approach. In this CFD study, mixing times and power number have been determined for a vessel agitated by a 6-blade Rushton turbine. The predicted results were compared with the published experimental data. The satisfactory results ...

effect of bataine and sulphate supplement on wool and milk characteristics and lambs performance in naine ewes

تعداد 20 رأس میش نژاد نائینی 6+-24 ماهه، با میانگین وزن 2/3-+40 کیلوگرم، همراه با 20 رأس بره های آنها در قالب طرح کاملا تصادفی اثر بتائین و مکمل سولفات بر خصوصیات شیر و پشم و عملکرد بره ها بررسی شد. میش ها بطور تصادفی در چهار تیمار قرار گرفتند. تیمارها عبارت بودند از: 1-گروه شاهد 2-بتائین (05/0 درصد ماده خشک) 3-سولفات (24/0 سولفور درصد ماده خشک 4-بتائین هرماه با سولفات. جیره غذائی طبق nrc با مح...

Compartment Mixing Model in a Stirred Tank Equipped Dual Rushton Turbine

Laminar mixing of high-viscous fluids by a cylindrical chaotic mixer

Laminar mixing of glycerin in a chaotic mixer is carried by means of the blob deformation method. The mixer was a cylindrical vessel with two rotational blades which move along two different circular paths with a stepwise motion protocol. The flow visualization was performed by marking of the free surface of the flow with a tracer. The effects of controlling parameters such as rotational speed ...

Experimental measurement and computational fluid dynamics simulation of mixing in a stirred tank: a review

Introduction Mixing in stirred tanks is driven by the impeller-generated convective motion at larger scales, by turbulent transfer at smaller scales and diffusion at molecular scales. Smith reported that the lack of a fundamental understanding of the processes in stirred vessels leads to losses in the order of US$10 billion per year due to non-optimal energy utilisation. Thus, there is a need t...
