Effect of Gravity on the Hydrodynamics in an Unbaffled Stirred Vessel

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of gravity on free-surface hydrodynamics in an unbaffled stirred vessel was analyzed for the laminar and turbulent flow regimes, and the simulation results indicated that for the higher-viscosity fluid, gravity only affects static pressure and dynamic pressure.

PIV experiments and large eddy simulations of single-loop flow fields in Rushton turbine stirred tanks

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of both geometrical configuration and Reynolds number on the single-loop flow fields in Rushton turbine stirred tanks with clearance C = 0.15 T were investigated by using particle image velocimetry (PIV) experiments and large eddy simulation (LES) methods.

Effect of gravity on particle collection efficiency of inertial impactors

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effect of gravity on particle collection in inertial impactors numerically and experimentally, and they showed that gravity increases particle collection when the Reynolds number is below about 1500.
