Quantitative Analysis of Residence Time Distribution in Kenics Static Mixer

Abstract:

The residence time distribution in Kenics static mixer is investigated using experimental approaches. Experimentally, RTD measure in SK with pulse tracer technology was used to characterize flow and mixing quality. The effect of velocity on the RTD was investigated for all sections. The results show that the flow in SK mixer tends to the plug flow along the axial direction when the velocity increases. The quantization analysis, the effect of factors on the mean residence time, is done by using the power function considering the numbers of mixer element, diameter, element aspect radio, and velocity. The validity of this function is testified by other experiments.
