主 题：Fragrance microcapsule Melamine-formaldehyde Particle size Orifice stirring paddle CFD simulation
摘 要：Controlling the size of fragranee microcapsules using designed agitator paddles was investigated and studied by CFD simulation. First, different fluid flows were established by varying stirring speeds, reactor scales, and agitator paddle design, and the effects of each on particle size and distribution of prepared microcapsules were determined. The experimental results showed that the pattern design of orifices in the plate paddles control the flow field well. Narrow particle-size distributio ns of the microcapsules were obtained. The fluid flow characteristics including fluid velocity field, turbulent kinetic energy field, and shear stress distribution for thedifferent agitator paddle types in different reaction kettles were simulated using CFD tech no logy. The correlations between simulated data and experime ntal results were an alyzed. Significantly, the simulated average flow velocity was found to show good negative linear correlation w让h the average particle size of prepared microcapsules, with a correlation of y =-2.166x + 42.626.
