    Abstract

    This paper describes the residence time distribution in a rotor-stator spinning disc reactor. This reactor consists of a disc with high rotation speed (up to 2000 rpm), between two stators with a small rotor-stator gap (0.5 to 3 mm). Residence time distribution experiments, at flow rates of 0.45 to 1.8 L/min, show that the flow in the rotor-stator spinning disc reactor can be described by a plug flow – mixer model. Predicted hydrodynamic velocity profiles confirm plug flow conditions in the center, and well mixed behavio
