摘要：The submerged propeller is presented as an important dynamic source in oxidation ditch. In order to guarantee the activated sludge not deposit, it is necessary to own adequate drive power. Otherwise, it will cause many problems such as the awful mixed flow and the great consuming of energy. At present, carrying on the installation optimization of submerged propeller in oxidation ditch mostly depends on experience. So it is necessary to use modern design method to optimize the installation position and number of submerged propeller, and to research submerged propeller flow field characteristics. The submerged propeller internal flow is simulated by using CFD software FLUENT6.3. Based on Navier-Stokes equations and standard k − ε turbulence model, the flow was simulated by using a SIMPLE algorithm. The results indicate that the submerged propeller installation position change could avoid the condition of back mixing, which caused by the strong drive. Besides, the problem of sludge deposit and the low velocity in the bend which caused by the drive power attenuation could be solved. By adjusting the submerged propeller number, the least power density that the mixing drive needed could be determined and saving energy purpose could be achieved. The study can provide theoretical guidance for optimize the submerged propeller installation position and determine submerged propeller number.
