  1. 1. On the modelling of turbulent flow and mixing in stirred reactors

    Author : Johan Revstedt; Strömningsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; turbulence; CFD; stirred reactors; impeller modelling; Energy research; mixing; LES; Energiforskning;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the numerical simulations and modelling of the flow structure and scalar transport in stirred reactors. For this Large Eddy Simulations (LES) have been used. The flow situation in a stirred reactor includes several flow phenomena that are not well predicted by "standard" two-equation models, e.g. READ MORE

  2. 2. Continuum modelling of particle flows in high shear granulation

    Author : Per Abrahamsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; parameter study; High shear granulation; continuum modelling; resolution dependence; granular flow; compartment model; kinetic theory of granular flow;

    Abstract : High shear granulation is an important process in the pharmaceutical industry. The aim of the process is to produce granules with specific properties, like size and hardness, from powder mixtures. The properties of the granules are determined by the flow field in the mixer.

  3. 3. Disintegration of Lime Mud Particles during the Causticizing Operation

    Author : Pia Tiljander; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CaCO3; Ca OH 2; CaO; lime mud; mixing; particles; slaking; causticizing; disintegration; impeller;

    Abstract : It is of essential importance that the white liquor used in processing wood chips to produce pulp in the sulphate pulp process is of high and uniform quality. The white liquor is, together with lime mud, produced in the causticizing plant where sodium carbonate is causticized with lime, slaked in green liquor. READ MORE

  4. 4. Fluid and Solid Particle Dynamics in Stirred Vessels

    Author : Mattias Ljungqvist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mixing time; pitched blade turbine; impeller modelling; stirred vessels; computational fluid dynamics; multi-fluid model; suspension of solids; phase-Doppler anemometry; laser Doppler anemometry; closed vessels;

    Abstract : The present thesis deals with the fluid dynamics of stirred vessels and particularly those that are to be used in conjunction with solids suspensions. Stirred vessels are very common in the process industry and large amounts of energy can be saved by optimising their operation. READ MORE
