Abstract

Side entry mixers or jet mixers are commonly used to achieve mixing in storage tanks and reactors. Impellers are other conventional devices used for mixing in industry, but they are expensive for large storage tanks and underground tanks. Jet mixers have been a better alternative to impellers in the process industry. Compared with Mechanically agitated mixers, these mixers use jet technique to create high turbulence, high shear rates and vortex motion offer several advantages in achieving rapid mixing over a short period of time without any moving parts. Jet mixing has become an alternative to conventional impeller mixing for various applications in process industries. To ensure optimal mixing performance, it is important to understand the basis of jet mixer design & also impact of different parameters in jet mixer design & preferred installation of mixers.
