Reconstruction of the 3D hydrodynamics in a baffled stirred tank using Proper Orthogonal Decomposition

C. Mayorga et al.

Summary: In this study, unsteady turbulent flow in a four-baffled stirred tank equipped with a Rushton turbine was computed using ANSYS FLUENT (R) with the sliding mesh technique. The POD algorithm was applied to both fixed and rotating mesh zones, as well as the full 3D CFD data. The results showed that 99.9% of system variance is recovered with the first three modes, and the reconstructed velocity field revealed trailing vortices and the mean flow.

3D flow simulation of a baffled stirred tank for an assessment of geometry simplifications and a scale-adaptive turbulence model

Kevin Rave et al.

Summary: The study on single-phase flow in a baffled tank stirred by a Rushton turbine at a Reynolds number of 40000 highlighted the benefits of a scale-adaptive simulation (SAS) compared with classical unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) models. The necessity of utilizing a full 360 degrees computational domain and the consideration of up to 150 impeller revolutions were demonstrated due to the existence of low-frequency flow instabilities. The SAS simulation showed a considerably improved prediction of mean velocity and turbulence statistics compared with conventional URANS models.

Reconstruction of large-scale flow structures in a stirred tank from limited sensor data

Kirill Mikhaylov et al.

Summary: The study combines reduced order modeling and system identification to reconstruct the temporal evolution of large-scale vortical structures behind the blades of a Rushton impeller. The results demonstrate that even using the velocity time signal from a single sensor point, the first pair of modes can be reconstructed well. Increasing the number of sensor points improves accuracy and stability, leading to better reconstruction of the second pair of POD modes. The estimator derived at Reynolds number 600 shows robustness when applied to flows at Reynolds numbers 500 and 700.
