A Design of Jet Mixed Tank

K. L. Wasewar

Abstract
Jet mixing has become alternative to conventional impeller mixing for various applications in process industries. Mixing time is an important design parameter in jet mixing. Many authors have used different parameters like jet velocity, jet diameter, tank height etc. to find out the correlation for mixing time. There is no comprehensive review, which tells exclusively about these parameters used for jet mixing. Recently many authors have used CFD in order to overcome experimental limitations for design of jet mixed tanks. A critical analysis of the available literature data has been made and some general conclusions have been drawn concerning the various parameters. This review focuses on the study of various parameters used in experimental and CFD work on jet mixed tanks to get the optimum design procedure.
