Dynamic Mixing Guide

There are different methods utilized for selecting and sizing agitators.

  • The SV, superficial velocity, method.
  • Power per unit volume and torque per unit volume.

Most of this data is compiled from laboratory testing and experience.


If your corporation has been using mixing equipment for many years and has been through a few upgrades and changes to your mixing equipment, you will have gained some of your own in-house expertise as well. At ZAIN, we can assist you to classify and categorize your mixing equipment.


Mixing impellers are characterized by Flow (pumping number) and Energy dissipation (power number).
