The experimental results were provided such as the mean velocity field, fluctuat-ing velocities, turbulent kinetic energy, Reynolds shear stress and time series of the velocity in the stirred tank. These results probably provided the valuable basis to further optimize and enlarge the stirred tank in the industrial process.展开更多
