โœฆ Synopsis


Pressure fluctuation spectra were measured inside a biochemical reactor at various mixing speeds and aeration rates. These spectra change considerably depending on the mixing conditions and appear to provide a detailed picture of the turbulent conditions within the reactor. Droplet size distributions were measured for 4% (v/v) hydrocarbon in the reactor. It was found that these droplet size distributions could be qualitatively predicted by analysis of the Rayleigh-Taylor iv_stabilities at the oil-water interface in conjunction with the observed pressure fluctuation spectra.

A new mixing probe has been developed which measures the motions of the fluid during mixing as pressure fluctuations and converts the measurements into a mixing signal (MS). The MS is the root mean square (RMS) pressure fluctuation in the 1-64Hz range as determined by a sensitive pressure sensor and
