Abstract
This paper deals with the effect of particle content on agitator speed for off-bottom suspension. The measurements were carried out with a pitched six -blade turbine in a flat-bottomed vessel equipped with four baffles. An equ ation for off-bottom suspension speed was obtained for volumetric particle content up to 45%. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
