A numerical investigation of the effects of blade’s geometric parameters on the power consumption of the twin-blade planetary mixer
Blades act as key components for twin-blade planetary mixer; their geometric parameters (blade–blade clearance and helical angle) and two different rotating modes (counter-rotating mode and co-rotating mode) were investigated numerically via commercial software ANSYS Fluent 14.5 to reveal the effect...
