Energy efficiency of a deep hollow bladed impeller for mixing viscoplastic fluids in a cylindrical vessel
The energy efficiency of a deep hollow blade disk turbine in unbaffled mixing vessel is determined in this article via numerical simulations. The vessel is filled with xanthan gum solutions, which have a shear thinning behavior with yield stress (viscoplastic). The Herschel-Bulkley law is used to mo...
