Abstract

Self-similarity impeller (SS impeller) was applied to enlarge the cavern region for the mixing of pseudoplastic fluid. The mixing characteristics of pseudoplastic fluid in an SS impeller stirred tank were explored by employing experimental and numerical simulation. The results indicated that the utilization of SS impeller resulted in significant improvement in the largest Lyapunov exponent of mixing system, as well as reduced mixing time and decreased mixing efficiency number compared with pitched-blade impeller (PB impeller) operating at an equivalent power consumption per unit volume. A reduction in power consumption was obtained through the application of self-similar configuration for the impeller blades. Meanwhile, SS impeller could enhance the fluidity of pseudoplastic fluid, minimize the stagnation regions, and enlarge the cavern region. This phenomenon was even more pronounced as the increase in self-similar iteration number of SS impeller. It was found that the design of self-similar structure for impeller blades could expand the cavern region and enhance the mixing efficiency for the mixing of pseudoplastic fluid, particularly as the self-similar iteration number increased.

改造叶轮叶片,实现搅拌罐中假塑性流体的高效混合
应用自相似性叶轮(SS 叶轮)扩大空腔区域,以混合假塑性流体。通过实验和数值模拟探讨了假塑性流体在 SS 叶轮搅拌槽中的混合特性。结果表明,与单位体积功耗相同的投叶式叶轮(PB 叶轮)相比,使用 SS 叶轮显著提高了混合系统的最大 Lyapunov 指数,缩短了混合时间,降低了混合效率。通过对叶轮叶片进行自相似配置,降低了功耗。同时,SS 叶轮可以增强假塑性流体的流动性,减少停滞区,扩大空腔区。随着 SS 叶轮自相似迭代次数的增加,这一现象更加明显。研究发现,叶轮叶片的自相似结构设计可以扩大空腔区域,提高假塑性流体的混合效率,尤其是随着自相似迭代次数的增加。
