Effect of impeller submergence on power dissipation and solids suspension in mixing systems equipped with pitch-blade turbines
… the liquid level was lowered, and the impeller submergence S_b changed as a result were determined for the case of a six-blade, pitch-blade turbine (6-PBT) impeller. The power consumed by the impeller was also measured. It was found that when a critical impeller submerge level was reached it was …
