Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulation has been maturing over the last few decades. In this thesis, CFD is employed to predict and study the hydrodynamic flow in the impeller stirred tank. The numerical results captured the formation of re-circulation zone near the inlet and toroidal segreg...
