| Abstract: | This paper presents simulation of rotating impeller in a mixing vessel by means of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). A special emphasis is devoted to the study of influence of the choice of numerical model for simulation of rotation of impeller when mixing a Newtonian fluid in a vessel equipped with Rushton impeller, and operating under turbulent flow conditions. In order to determine the best simulation approach experimental validation of the selected problem is done by means of Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) system. When using the rotating frame of reference approach, the stirring vessel geometry has to be split into a stationary and rotating part, and the questionarises where to position the interface between both regions in order to avoid numerical errors, originating in numerical approximations at the interface. To answer this question, a comparison between the CFD based numerical results and experimental results, was made. |
