CFD SIMULATION OF THE HYDRODYNAMICS AND MIXING TIME IN A STIRRED TANK

Hydrodynamics and mixing efficiency in stirred tanks influence power draw and are therefore important for the design of many industrial processes. In the present study, both experimental and simulation methods were employed to determine the flow fields in different mixing tank configurations in a si...
