The mixing process in a mechanically agitated vessel is a widespread phenomenon which
plays an important role among industrial processes. In that process, one of the crucial …

In the first part of the review, published literature regarding the CFD modelling of single‐
phase turbulent flow in stirred tank reactors with radial flow impellers was critically analysed …

This work is aimed at verifying the effect of numerical issues on the RANS-based predictions
of single phase stirred tanks. In particular, the effect of grid size and discretization schemes …

Power consumption of a mixing system is a key variable in chemical and bioprocess
engineering, the determination of which is of interest of many processes. Besides, prediction …

The production rate of fed-batch aerobic fermenters is often limited by the oxygen transfer
rate that depends on the fluid dynamics of the gas-liquid system. In turn, ideal flow regimes …

A three-dimensional CFD model was developed in this work to simulate hydrodynamic
characteristics of a gas–liquid two-phase stirred tank with two six-bladed turbines and four …

A novel method was proposed to determine the flow regime based on the bottom pressure
fluctuations of the stirred tank. Statistical, Hurst, Shannon entropy and chaos analysis …

It is known that process scaling-up has always been a challenge in biopharmaceutical and
food industry. In recent years, newly emerging microscale bioreactors like Ambr15 and …

An open-source CFD software OpenFOAM® is used to simulate two multiphase stirred-tank
reactors relevant to industrial processes such as slurry polymerization and fuel production …

Present work compares the mass transfer coefficient (k L a) and power draw capability of
stirred tank employed with Rushton and curved blade impeller using computational fluid …
