Modelling of mass transfer in gas-liquid stirred tanks agitated by Rushton turbine and CD-6 impeller: a scale-up study

A combined computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and population balance model (PBM) approach has been applied to the simulation of gas-liquid stirred tanks agitated by (i) a Rushton turbine or (ii) a CD-6 impeller, operating at aeration numbers from 0.017 to 0.038. The multiphase simulations were reali...
