ویژگی های انتقال جرم و قدرت مخزن مخلوط با رشتون و پروانه منحنی تیغه

Present work compares the mass transfer coefficient (kLa) and power draw capability of stirred tank employed with Rushton and curved blade impeller using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques in single and double impeller cases. Comparative analysis for different boundary conditions and mass transfer model has been done to assess their suitability. The predicted local kLa has been found higher in curved blade impeller than the Rushton impeller, whereas stirred tank with double impeller does not show variation due to low superficial gas velocity. The global kLa predicted has been found higher in curved blade impeller than the Rushton impeller in double and single cases. Curved blade impeller also exhibits higher power draw capability than the Rushton impeller. Overall, stirred tank with curved blade impeller gives higher efficiency in both single and double cases than the Rushton turbine
