A comprehensive literature review on the estimation of the dissipation rate of turbulent
kinetic energy is presented to assess the current state of knowledge available in this area …

A critical review of the published literature regarding the computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
modelling of single‐phase turbulent flow in stirred tank reactors is presented. In this part of …

Single phase turbulent flow in a tank stirred by a down-and an up-pumping pitched blade
turbine has been simulated using computational fluid dynamics. The effect of the modeling …

This article outlines a computational procedure for the prediction of dispersed two‐phase,
solid‐liquid and gas‐liquid, turbulent flows in baffled, impeller‐stirred vessels common in the …

Numerical simulations of the flow field in baffled mixing tanks, based on three alternative
methods, are presented and discussed. In the first method, the impeller is not explicitly …

An updated review on suspension polymerization is presented. The time period from 1991 to
1995 is stressed, as well as research articles or reports not considered in previous reviews …

Protein molecules are subjected to potentially denaturing fluid shear forces during
processing and in circulation in the body. These complex molecules, involved in numerous …

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 …

Previous correlations have focused on the relationship between the mean drop size and the
physical properties of the fluids (interfacial tension, density and viscosity), the volume …

The state of the art of the modelling of gas—liquid flow in bubble columns and loop reactors
is critically reviewed. Recent results obtained with dynamic multidimensional two-fluid …
