Over the past few decades, there has been much progress in understanding mixing mostly due to advances in computerized measurement and simulation techniques. Thanks to ongoing advances in flow modeling technology, detailed insight of the flow-dependent processes in mixing equipment can readily be simulated and understood using CFD software.

Today, a wide range of applications from blending to solid suspension, from heat transfer in jacketed reactors to fermentation are modeled using Fluent's mixing technology. Computer simulations can help evaluate key mixing parameters, such as blending time, circulation, and power number in any configuration of impellers and mixing conditions for any vessel geometry. These simulations complement using experimental methods. The use of CFD to predict and understand the flow-dependent processes in such equipment can enhance product quality and reduce both cost and time to market of many products.

Customer Testimonials

"Two important benefits have resulted from our use of FLUENT to solve dozens of application problems over the years: enormous profits and engineering confidence. While the profits alone justify the usefulness of CFD, the self-reliance that our engineers have gained in all business units - petrochemicals, information and electronic materials, industrial materials, and R&D - is the most valuable return from it. CFD has given our engineers much more insight into our processes than ever before, and we will continue to understand more and more using CFD in the future."
