摘要
We present a comparison between the finite-element and the lattice-Boltzmann method for simulating fluid flow in a SMRX static mixer reactor. The SMRX static mixer is a piece of equipment with excellent mixing performance and it is used in highly efficient chemical reactors for viscous systems like polymers. The complex geometry of this mixer makes such 3D simulations nontrivial. An excellent agreement between the results of the two simulation methods and experimental data was found.
