Simulated Research for Effect of Mixer Shaft Speed on Flow Field in Mixing Machine

Abstract:

Along with the rapid development of China's economy, the CFD technology has become an indispensable new technology in industrial production, and it plays an important role in the development of industry. Using computational fluid dynamics software called FLUENT. The investigation was carried out in a mixer, which its internal flow of the 3-d numerical simulation. The unstructured tetrahedron grid and unsteady multiphase turbulent calculation model were used to analyze the mixer internal fluid concentration, speed and turbulent kinetic parameters e.g., which produce changes and distributions with the different stirring shaft speed, and reveal the law of internal flow. Through the simulation result, can conclude that the numerical simulation method can truly reflect the interior complicated flow state of mixing machine, and can provide theory basis for the design and improvement of the mixing equipment.
