Three-dimensional measurements in the baffle region of a turbulently stirred tank
نویسندگان
چکیده
Three-dimensional laser Doppler Anemometry measurements of the turbulent flow field in the vicinity of the baffles in a vessel agitated with a Rushton turbine have been performed. The measurements have provided simultaneously all three components of the instantaneous velocity, and thus information on all elements of the Reynolds stress and anisotropy tensors in addition to data on flow field and turbulence levels.

Numerical Simulation of Flow Field in a Elliptic Bottom Stirred Tank with Bottom Baffles
When the crisscross baffles and logarithmic spiral baffles are placed on the bottom of the stirred tank with elliptic bottom, using CFD software FLUENT simulates the velocity field of the stirred tank with elliptic bottom and bottom baffles. Compare the velocity field of stirred tank with bottom crisscross baffle to the velocity field of stirred tank without bottom baffle and analysis the flow ...
متن کاملMulti-scale Simulations of Stirred Liquid--liquid Dispersions
Direct numerical simulations (DNS) of liquid–liquid dispersions in a three-dimensional periodic domain have been performed by means of the lattice–Boltzmann method. The dispersion was agitated by a random force field such as to produce isotropic turbulence. The turbulence levels and its history were based on a fluid parcel in a turbulently stirred tank traversing the impeller swept region. The ...
متن کاملA boundary element study for evaluation of the effects of the rigid baffles on liquid sloshing in rigid containers
In this paper, the sloshing response of liquid in a two dimensional rigid rectangular tank with rigid baffles is investigated using boundary element technique. A baffle is a supplementary structural element which supplies a kind of passive control on the effects of ground shaking. The complicated liquid domain is divided into two simple sub-domains so that the liquid velocity potential in each ...
متن کاملA Computational Study about the Effect of Turbines Pitched Blade Attack Angle on the Power Consumption of a Stirred Tank
In this study, the stirring mechanism of shear-thinning fluids benefiting from four blades in turbulent flow is considered. The fluid is studied inside a stirred cylindrical tank with a flat bottom. The height of fluid is equal to the cylinder’s diameter and the impeller is positioned centrally. A CFD simulation has been carried out and three-dimensional turbulent flow is numerically analyzed u...
