    Large eddy simulations of a brine-mixing tank

    , Article 25TH International Conference on Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering, OMAE 2006, Hamburg, 4 June 2006 through 9 June 2006 ; Volume 2006 , 2006 ; 0791837777 (ISBN); 9780791837771 (ISBN) Mousavi, S. M ; Zamankhan, P ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    Traditionally, solid-liquid mixing has always been regarded as an empirical technology with many aspects of mixing, dispersing and contacting where related to power draw. One important application of solid-liquid mixing is the preparation of brine from sodium formate. This material has been widely used as a drilling and completion fluid in challenging environments such as in the Barents Sea. In this paper large-eddy simulations, of a turbulent flow in a solid-liquid, baffled, cylindrical mixing vessel with a large number of solid particles, are performed to obtain insight into the fundamental aspects of a mixing tank. The impeller-induced flow at the blade tip radius is modeled by using the...
