ON THE PERFORMANCE OF DIFFERENT RANS BASED MODELS TO DESCRIBE THE TURBULENT FLOW IN AN AGITATED VESSEL USING NON-STRUCTURED GRIDS AND PIV VALIDATION
ABSTRACT The performances of the Standard κ-ε, RNG, Realizable, κ-ω and RSM turbulence models to describe the behavior of the flow in agitated tank reactors were evaluated. Because most of these tanks have complex geometries, structured meshing schemes are not a practical alternative in engineering....
