✦ Synopsis
Turbulent Mixing in Baffled Stirred Tanks with Vertical-Blade Impellers
Mixing time and power consumption have been measured in baffled, paddle-agitated cylindrical tanks with single-and double-impellers, and mixing efficiency has been defined by a reciprocal of the product of the mixing time and power consumption. The mixing efficiency and mixing time of double-impeller agitation have been compared with those of single-impeller agitation, and they have been related, through a circulation time, to the flow patterns obtained from the measurements of mean axial and radial velocities.
