CFD-Simulation of a Stirred Tank Reactor
Product number:
SW10037
Product information "CFD-Simulation of a Stirred Tank Reactor"
Product: Complete description of fluid dynamical and mixing behavior of a stirred tank reactor.
Delivery time: 30 days after technical clarification
Extended Description:
CFD stands for Computational Fluid Dynamics and is a branch of fluid mechanics that uses numerical analysis to solve problems involving fluid flow. Using CFD-Simulations it is possible to analyze and optimize stirred tank reactors. All relevant process parameters can be analyzed such as: degree of mixing, suspension of solids, identification of short-circuiting or dead zones, etc.
Stirred tanks are one of the most common reactors in the biological stage of water and wastewater treatment. An efficient and smooth process operation is essential for functioning of the whole plant.
