摘要:Impeller is the core component of stirrer, which is widely applied in many industrial fields, therefore more and more endeavor is made to design and optimize its structure, in order to improve the efficiency and reliability of stirrer. In this paper, a paddle-spiral ribbon impeller is introduced. 3-D numerical simulation is carried out to study the mixing performances of four different combined forms of this kind of impeller. In the numerical studies, unstructured grid and multi-reference frame (MRF) are used; standard k-ε turbulent model and mixture model are adopted to simulate the mixing process of solid-liquid two-phase flow. From the non-steady state simulations, velocity field, mixing time and power consumption are obtained. The results indicate that this kind of impeller is effective for stirring serious fluid. The fist combination form of paddle-spiral ribbon impeller has the best stirring performance.
