Herein is disclosed a comprehensive mixer performance estimation method that can be applied to the mixers of the rotor-stator type having various configurations and circulation systems. Specifically, the performance estimation method for the mixers of the rotor-stator type includes the steps of: obtaining the homogenization index: H.I. for each of the mixers, measuring the size of each of the mixers, the power requirements and flow rates during the running time of each of the mixers, estimating the magnitude (smallness or greatness) of the configuration dependent term value of each of the mixer as a whole which is specific to each of the mixers, and estimating the performance of each of mixers accordingly.
A mixer of the stator-rotor type comprising a mixer unit that includes a stator having a plurality of openings (holes) and a rotor disposed on the inner side of the stator and spaced by a particular gap away from the stator, the mixer having the construction that is designed by using the Equation 1 given below in such a manner that a particular mixer running time and a particular drop diameter during the particular mixer running time can be obtained when a fluid being processed is subjected to the emulsification, dispersion, particle size breakup or mixing process and by estimating the particular mixer running time and the resulting drop diameter by using the Equation 1:
A method for estimating the performance of a mixer of the rotor-stator type comprising a mixer unit that includes a stator having a plurality of openings (holes) and a rotor disposed on the inner side of the stator and spaced by a particular gap away from the stator, wherein the method includes the steps of:
A method for scaling up or scaling down a mixer of the rotor-stator type comprising a mixer unit that includes a stator having a plurality of openings (holes) and a rotor disposed on the inner side of the stator and spaced by a particular gap away from the stator, wherein the method includes the steps of:
Foods, pharmaceutical medicines or chemical products which are manufactured by subjecting a fluid being processed to the emulsification, dispersion, particle size breakup or mixing process that occurs using the mixer of the stator-rotor type which comprises a mixer unit that includes a stator having a plurality of openings (holes) and a rotor disposed on the inner side of the stator and spaced by a particular gap away from the stator, wherein the foods. pharmaceutical medicines or chemical products are manufactured by using the Equation 1 given below, estimating the mixer running time and the drop diameters thus obtained during the mixer running time for the fluid being processed, and subjecting the fluid being processed to the emulsification, dispersion, particle size breakup or mixing process that occurs using the mixer:
A method for manufacturing foods, pharmaceutical medicines or chemical products by subjecting a fluid being processed to the emulsification, dispersion, drop breakup or mixing process using a mixer of the stator-rotor type which comprises a mixer unit that includes a stator having a plurality of openings (holes) and a rotor disposed inside the stator and spaced by a particular gap away from the stator, wherein the method includes the steps of:
