In accordance with anisotropic feature of turbulent flow,an anisotropic k-ε turbulence model is used to predict the turbulent flow field and turbulent intensity generated by a Rushton disc turbine with the improved inner-outer iterative procedure considering the feature of flow swirl in the stirred tank.The predicted flow patterns are compared with experimental data and the simulation results with the standard k-ε turbulence model.The anisotropic k-ε turbulence model gives better prediction than...
