Retreat blade impeller glass-lined

In glass-lined vessels, the 3 blade Pfaudler Retreat Curve Impeller (RCI) is often used for liquid-liquid dispersions although the myriad of impeller styles currently available with glass... 

Ackley [79] suggests use of Equation (9.87) for unbaffied retreat-curve (blade) impellers typically used in glass-lined vessels ... 

For glass-lined vessels and retreat curve blade impellers and glass-lined turbines, five different types of baffles (shown in Figure 6-7) are commonly used Anger, flattened pipe, h style, concave baffle, and fin. These baffles can be conveniently supported in the vessel heads of glass-lined reactors. Of these, the fin baffle has become a more standard choice.
