Oxygen absorption in a baffled tank agitated by delta paddle impeller

Abstract

Abstract The power consumption and the volume‐based mass transfer coefficient ( k l a ) for oxygen uptake from air into water have been measured for delta paddle impellers (10 cm and 20 cm diameter) in water in a 30 cm square sectioned baffled tank. Power consumption under ungassed conditions was measured in viscous mineral oil. For the 20 cm impeller, the effects of minor design modifications, such as sweeping the blade forward or back, …
