On the basis of CFD simulations the influence of the impeller position in the vessel on the flow pattern, velocity distributions and turbulence parameters are examined. Data are presented in visualisations and distribution maps created with various flow visualisation criterions. The results of this work can be used for the design and optimisation of mixing equipment applied in the industry.  }, doi = {10.4467/2353737XCT.17.100.6576}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/czasopismo-techniczne/article/the-performance-of-the-rushton-turbine-eccentrically-positioned-in-a-mixing-vessel-part-i-the-qualitative-cfd-analysis} }
