Summary: The effects have been examined of geometry and dynamical and physical properties of the system on mass and energy transfer in agitated vessels. The results, beside providing a scientific contribution to the field of transport phenomena in agitated vessels, can be applied in 1) mass transfer in agitated vessels in solid-liquid systems; 2) operations involving suspension of solid particles in gitated vessels and sampling of suspensions from agitated vessels (dissolving, catalytic chemical reactions, precipitation, crystallization); 3) styrene suspension pearl-polymerizatins; 4) examination of coatings in agitated vessels; 5) heat transfer operations in processes involving stirring and in heat transfer equipment. For each of the cases listed, a number of empirical solutions has been optained, whit dimensionless characteristics interrelating a whole series of parameters affecting some transfer operations in agitated vessels. The parameters defined and thier interrelations are the basic data needed to design equipment to be used for mass and energy transfer.

Keywords: Mass transfer, energy transfer, agitated vessels, suspended particles, suspension sampling, styrene polymerization, coatings, jacketed vessel, coil vessel, U-bend vessel

Research goals: Industrial processes based on transfer phenomena are man-controlled, so that research in that area has as its goal a definition of conditions under which the process will be carried out in the quickest, simplest and the most economical way. Agitation is not only an auxiliary operation there, but a main promoter of mass and energy transfer. The expected results define a whole series of parameters needed in designing the chemical industry equipement to be used for mass and energy transfer.
