Radial Flow

This flow pattern is perpendicular to the stirrer shaft, characterized by radial flow. When it encounters the container wall, it divides into two directions: one downward and the other upward. Ultimately, it returns to the blade tip, thus creating a circular flow in both vertical directions.

Axial Flow

This flow pattern has a direction parallel to the stirrer's shaft. At this point, the main kinetic energy of the fluid is provided by the paddle blades, which typically cause the fluid to flow downward. Upon encountering the interior, the flow reverses and moves upward. This up and down movement creates a cyclic flow.

III. Tangential Flow

This flow pattern maintains a parallel direction in Wan County, just as its kinetic energy is also provided by the paddle blades. Initially, the flow direction is downward. Upon encountering the bottom of the container, it alters its direction, becoming upward. This also results in the formation of a circular flow.

These three flow patterns are the main aspects in mixers. Generally, all fluids flowing through pipes will undergo these three different flow patterns when mixed. Therefore, it is crucial to fully understand the flow patterns of these liquids when using mixers, as they directly impact the selection and operation of the mixer. Similarly, this can also broaden your perspective and help you understand the principles of mixers.
