The design of the agitated tanks depends on the proposed operating conditions and processes
for that they are used for. Namely dissipation rate of the turbulent kinetic energy is important
parameter for the scale-up modelling. The dissipation rate is commonly determined as integral
value based on power input of the impeller, but without information about distribution inside
the agitated volume. The cumulative distributions of the dissipation rate within an agitated
vessel are estimated by evaluations of the CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) results,
where the data was obtained from RANS (Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations) and
LES (Large Eddy Simulations). The simulations were performed for an agitated vessel
equipped with four baffles and stirred by a standard Rushton turbine (tank diameter 0.3 m,
impeller diameter 0.1 m, off-bottom clearance half of tank diameter, impeller speed 200 rpm).
The values of the dissipation rate from the LES calculations were approximated by computing
the SGS (Sub Grid Scale) dissipation rate.
