  Analysis of key mixing parameters in industrial Wemco mechanical ...

  201871 · Historically, hydrodynamics in flotation has been described using a range of dimensionless numbers and key hydrodynamic parameters; e.g. power intensity, impeller tip speed, Power number, Froude number, tank-turnover time and Air flow number. Hydrodynamics is responsible for mixing which is important in mechanically agitated …

  CFD model of a self-aerating flotation cell - ScienceDirect

  2007125 · Abstract The effect of impeller speed on the air flow in a self-aerated Denver laboratory flotation cell was investigated using computational modelling. Air is induced into the slurry by the impeller's rotating action. The rate of air flow is determined by the suction pressure created by the impeller, the hydrostatic head of the slurry and the …
