The dispersion characteristics of different axial‐ and radial‐flow impellers at the same average specific power and energy input are investigated in this paper. The impact of turbulent shear stresses is decisive for the breakup of deformable particles like droplets, since dispersion usually is carried out under turbulent flow conditions.
