Numerical Investigation of the Performance of Kenics Static Mixers for the Agitation of Shear Thinning Fluids

Show other versions (1)

The laminar flow of non-Newtonian fluids through a Kenics static mixer is investigated by using the CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) tool. The working fluids have a shear thinning behavior modeled by the Ostwald De Waele law. We focus on the effect of Reynolds number, fluid properties, twist angle...
