Yeoh, S.L., Papadakis, G., and Yianneskis, M. (2004) Numerical simulation of turbulent flow characteristics in a stirred vessel using the les and rans approaches with the sliding/deforming mesh methodology. Chem. Eng. Res. Des., 82 (A7), 834-848. [Pg.355]

An inherent property of the LES approach is that the simulated flow field is no longer steady, but exhibits a transient character due to the presence and motion of large-scale eddies. The LES methodology has proven to be a powerful tool for studying and visualizing stirred tank flows (Eggels, 1996 Derksen et al. 1999 Bakker et al., 2000 Derksen, 2001 Bakker and Oshinowo, 2004), as it inherently takes the unsteady and periodic behavior of the flow (around impeller and baffles) into account. [Pg.162]

In the previous sections, the use of surfactants to increase the rate of desorption of hydrophobic organic contaminants was discussed. For the current study, several different surfactants were tested to determine whether the rate of TCE desorption from a peat soil could be increased. The effects of the surfactants on the rate of TCE desorption was tested using a continuous-flow stirred-tank reactor (CFSTR) methodology. The observed data were simulated using a distributed-rate kinetic desorption model. The parameters determined from the model simulation were then use to discern the effects of the surfactants on the rate of TCE desorption from the peat soil. The experimental methodology and the modeling procedure are now described in detail. [Pg.226]

Many of the situations encountered by reactor engineers involve (refer to Table 10.1) contact with more than one phase in a stirred tank. It is, therefore, essential to examine whether CFD models can simulate complex multiphase flows in stirred tanks. Here the case of gas-liquid flows in a stirred tank is considered. Similar methodology can be applied to simulate other two-phase or multiphase flows in stirred vessels. The computational snapshot approach discussed previously has been extended to simulate gas-liquid flows (see Ranade et al., 2001c for more details). A two-fluid model was used to simulate gas-liquid flow in a stirred vessel the model equations and boundary conditions are listed below. [Pg.311]

By using CFD, the fluid flows can be taken into closer examination. Rigorous submodels can be implemented into commercial CFD codes to calculate local two-phase properties. These models are Population balance equations for bubble/droplet size distribution, mass transfer calculation, chemical kinetics and thermodynamics. Simulation of a two-phase stirred tank reactor proved to be a reasonable task. The results revealed details of the reactor operation that cannot be observed directly. It is clear that this methodology is applicable also for other multiphase process equipment than reactors. [Pg.545]
