Relevance of laminar mixing flows • Polymer processing • – improve material properties • – mixing of existing polymers is cheaper than • developing new polymers • • Process industry • – heat transport • – enhancement of reaction speeds • • Food industry • – structure development
Mixing and mapping: Project goals • Basics of distributive mixing • Basics of the mapping method • Optimization of mixing protocol: Cavity mixing flow • Optimization of mixing protocol: Journal bearing flow • Optimization of mixing geometry: Kenics mixer • Choice of mixing goal • Choice of mixing measure • Intensity of segregation • Scale of segregation • ….. • DEVELOP YOUR OWN MIXING PROTOCOL • EXPERIMENTS
