Dr. Malika Seddik Bouchouicha(MCA) is a faculty member and lecturer at Mohamed Boudiaf University, specializing in fluid mechanics and mixing processes. With a strong background in the effects of geometric design on fluid dynamics, Dr. Bouchouicha’s research focuses on optimizing mixing efficiency through structural adjustments, particularly in industrial applications. In her recent work, "Study of the Effect of Geometric Shape on the Quality of Mixing: Examining the Effect of Length of the Baffles," she explores how variations in baffle length impact flow behavior and mixing quality. Dr. Bouchouicha has contributed to advancing methods for enhancing industrial mixing, with applications in chemical engineering and renewable energy sectors.
Address: University of Science and Technology of Oran Mohammed Boudiaf, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, BP 1505 El M'Naouer 31000 Oran, Algeria.

The working fluid is complex, of a shear-thinning type and the Oswald model is used to describe the fluid viscosity. The study was accomplishedby numerically solving the governing equations of momentum and continuity. These equations were solved for the following range of conditions: 50-1000 for the Reynolds number, 0-0.15 for the baffle length ratio, and the number of impeller blades 2 and 4. The simulations were done for the steady state and laminar regime. The results show that the increase in baffle length (by increasing the ratio baffle length ratio) decreases the fluid velocity in the vessel. Increasing the speed of rotation of the impeller and/or increasing the number of blades improves the mixing process. Also, the length of the baffles does not affect the consumed power.
