Fluid Mixer Apparatus.
Fluid Mixer Apparatus
For a processing vessel to be effective
the volume of fluid circulated by the impellers must be sufficient to
sweep out the entire vessel in a reasonable time. The velocity of the
stream leaving the impeller must be sufficient to carry the current to
the remotest parts of the tank. Liquids are most often mixed in some
kind of tanks or vessels, usually cylindrical in form and with a
vertical axis. Tank bottom is rounded to
eliminate regions into which the fluid currents would not penetrate. In
the present set-up mixing is done with the help of stirrer. The stirrer
is complete with SS Impeller with SS Shaft coupled to FHP DC motor. The
speed of agitator can be varied with the help of Thyristor controlled DC
Drive and power consumption is measured by Digital Voltmeter &
Digital Ammeter. Four replaceable baffles are provided to prevent
swirling. One 4-bladded propeller and one 6-bladded turbine are provided
which are interchangeable. Drain valve is also provided at the bottom.
Effectiveness of power consumption in fluid mixing can be performed with
and without baffles hence increasing the range of experimentation. The
whole set-up is mounted on a rigid MS frame structure.
Experimentation:
To plot Power number Vs Reynolds number for the given set of impeller with baffled/ unbaffled mixing.
To study the mixing characteristics of give solid/liquid mixture.
