Mixed-flow impeller characteristics in baffled mixing tank

In recent times, impellers have been designed and modified to combine unique hydrodynamic features to overcome redundancy during mixing. One of such impeller is the mixed-flow impeller which displays a unique combination of radial and axial flow. In this paper, the flow characteristic of a mixed-flo...
