Stirred tanks are widely used in various industrial processes for mixing, and reactions understanding the flow behavior optimizing impeller design is crucial improving mixing efficiency product quality. This paper investigates radial velocity profiles near tip a baffled stirred tank using experimental measurements computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. A cylindrical with four baffles w...

Lagrangian trajectories obtained through 3D Particle Tracking Velocimetry (3D-PTV) measurements have been used to visualize the flow field of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids in a flat-bottomed vessel. The vessel, diameter T=180 mm, was equipped with 6-blade Rushton turbine D=T/3 four baffles width b=T/10. experiments were carried out transitional regime (73≤Re≤1,257). velocities acceleration...

Volumetric three-component velocimetry measurements have been taken of the flow field near a Rushton turbine in a stirred tank reactor. This particular flow field is highly unsteady and three-dimensional, and is characterized by a strong radial jet, large tank-scale ring vortices, and small-scale blade tip vortices. The experimental technique uses a single camera head with three apertures to ob...

In this work, steady-state droplet size distributions in a DN300 stirred batch vessel with Rushton turbine impeller are investigated using an insertion probe based on the telecentric transmitted light principle. High-resolution extracted from images convolutional neural network for image-analysis order to investigate influence of speed and phase fraction (up 50 vol.-%). addition, Sauter mean di...
