Review on gas-liquid mixing analysis in multiscale stirred vessel using CFD

This review aims to establish common approaches and equations used in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis for gas-liquid mixing operations and investigate their strengths and weaknesses. The review concluded that with a sufficient computing strength, Eulerian-Lagrangian approaches can simula...
