3-D CFD transient simulation of transesterification in stirred tank reactor

A transient CFD simulation was successfully carried out for waste cooking oil (WCO)transesterification in a stirred tank reactor (STR). In this work, a multi-species reaction model was simplified to simulate the reactive flow in an STR using in a multiple reference frame (MRF)approach. Average velo...
