Design
of pumper mixers for copper solvent extraction: Although this is a
liquid-liquid application, the main purpose of the pumper is to create
enough head and flow in a closed circuit. The dimensionless numbers
for flow, head, and power are described.

Flow pattern through a Line
Blender doing it the wrong way (Dynamic
mixing in a pipe, pipe mixer) We show what happens when you use a Line
Blender in the wrong flow direction. It swamps the impellers.

Process
Intensifiers: Optimization using CFD: Four different
styles of Line Blenders or In-Line Mixers were tested at the same
conditions. Power number, shear rates, eddy viscosity, pressure drop,
flow patterns and more are looked at in great detail. Animations of
velocity are also included.
