Abstract
- CFD was used to characterize the mixing of shear thinning fluids with yield stress in a CSTR.
- The CFD model was successfully validated using the experimental data.
- Effects of the rheological parameters on the mixing performance of a CSTR were quantified.
- Rheology of the fluid had a substantial effect on the extent of non-ideal flow.
- CFD model enabled us to optimize the design criteria for the CSTR.
