✦ Synopsis


IN PREVIOUS notes [ l-51, the hydrodynamics of a continuous flow mixer equipped with a two flat-bladed stirrer and four baffles, fed from above, was examined. By carrying out a study of residence times distribution function (RTDF) for a wide range of operative conditions: stirrer velocity, feed rate, viscosity and mixer dimensions, values for some typical quantities: m,, n, (l/a),,, of a suitable hydrodynamic mixer model (Fig. 1) were obtained. This model consisted of a central mixing nucleus, whose RTDF standard deviation is
