Semicircular Blade Smiths Disc Turbine for Agitator
The Semicircular Blade Smith Disc Turbine LESBSDTA is a radial flow impeller for stirred pressure reactors. Six half-pipe shaped blades are fixed to a flat disc on the agitator shaft. The blade form was developed to limit the drop in impeller power draw that occurs under gassed conditions, so the impeller keeps dispersing gas when gas is fed into the liquid. It is applied to high shear mixing and to medium and high duty gas dispersion, and gives good contacting in liquid-liquid and gas-liquid systems.
How it works
The disc turbine discharges liquid radially from the blade tips toward the vessel wall. The half-pipe blade profile handles gas at a lower energy cost than a plain blade. In the selection table for this impeller group, disc turbines are placed at 100 to 350 r/min for low and medium viscosity liquids, with strong shear, gas dispersion, medium speed operation and a higher energy consumption than propellers.
Impeller diameter runs from 30 to 2000 mm and shaft diameter from 10 to 200 mm. Blade count is 6, 8 or 10. Materials are carbon steel, SS304, SS316, titanium, nickel, Hastelloy B/C, Monel, zirconium, Inconel and tantalum. The reference pairing of impeller diameter to shaft diameter is given below.
