摘　　要：Particle suspension and deposition dynamics are significant factors affecting the level of mixing quality in solidliquid two-phase stirring processes. In general, the ability to increase the suspension rate and minimize depositioneffects is instrumental in improving the uniformity of particle mixing, accelerating the reaction of involved solidliquid two-phase, and improving the efficiency of production operations. In this work, suspension and depositionindicator based on the Betti number and a uniformity indicator are introduced and obtained by means of imageanalysis. The influence of the blade type, rotation speed, blade diameter and blade bottom height on the particlesuspension/deposition characteristics and mixing uniformity are carefully investigated. The experimental resultsshow that the two-phase motion region can be divided into three local regions, including a bottom motion alongthe wall, a low-degree suspension region under the blade and a high suspension region above the blade. The bestdegree of particle suspension is attained by the double-inclined blade paddle at a speed of 270 r/min, a paddlediameter ratio of 0.414, and a height-diameter ratio of 0.086. The double-inclined blade paddle has a better effecton promoting particle suspension and solid-liquid two-phase mixing uniformity.
