Rb. Desai et Jb. Joshi, FLOW PATTERN IN THE VICINITY OF GAS-LIQUID INTERFACE IN A STIRRED CELL, Journal of Chemical Engineering of Japan, 29(4), 1996, pp. 568-576
Three dimensional turbulent flow was measured in the vicinity of gas-l
iquid interface using Laser Doppler Anemometer. The measurements were
made in a 100 mm i.d. stirred cell with a flat interface. Mean and rms
velocities were measured at seven radial and three axial locations. T
he effect of liquid viscosity on the flow pattern was investigated. Th
ese measurements form a first step in validating the published theorie
s on mass transfer.
