“…The Euler–Euler approach is adopted to simulate the stirring process, and the Realizable
model with a strong ability to correct the rotating flow is used to calculate the turbulence flow. The solid–liquid phase mass and momentum balance equations are expressed as follows [20]:
where,

and solid phase
, respectively.
