CFD modelling of the turbulent heat transfer was performed for a stirred tank equipped with a Rushton turbine impeller and four standard baffles. Eight different turbulence models, i.e. the standard k-epsilon, RNG k-epsilon, realizable k-epsilon, Chen-Kim k-epsilon, optimized Chen-Kim k-epsilon, standard k-omega, k-omega SST and Reynolds stress models, were used during the modelling. In all investigated cases, the boundary flow at the vessel wall was described by the standard logarithmic wall functions. The CFD modelling values of the local heat transfer coefficient were compared with the corresponding experimental data. The best agreement was obtained for the standard k-epsilon, optimized Chen-Kim k-epsilon and k-omega SST models.
