Breaking spatial symmetry has also been proposed as a means of inducing chaos in
stirred tanks. This could be induced by varying the angle α between the principal axis of
compression or extension and the axis of rotation w. If α = 0, then the ow is symmetric
and consists of nested torii above and below the impeller. However, by tilting the impeller
(α > 0) and consequently geometrically perturbing the system, the ow loses rotational
symmetry, and chaos arises. More recently, Alvarez et al. (2000) demonstrated that for
some values of geometrical eccentricity, widespread chaos is achieved and a signicant
reduction in mixing time is observed with respect to concentric stirred tank systems using
generic impel ...
