Hellma PAT Forum Webinar

»From Flow to Force: Understanding Dynamic Loads in Stirred Tank Reactors« with Sven Hanselmann

Join our PAT Forum ONLINE Webinar on November 12, 2026, covering the topic »From Flow to Force: Understanding Dynamic Loads in Stirred Tank Reactors«.

Successful implementation of Process Analytical Technology (PAT) involves more than selecting the right measurement technology. When probes and sensors are installed directly inside stirred tank reactors, they are exposed to dynamic forces that can affect their mechanical stability and long-term reliability. Understanding these loads is therefore an important consideration for the mechanical integration and placement of PAT probes and sensors.

In this 45-minute webinar, Sven Hanselmann, Senior Project Manager Sales at EKATO Rühr- und Mischtechnik GmbH, will explain how dynamic loads arise and affect vessel internals. Using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Finite Element Analysis (FEA), he will demonstrate how engineering simulations can help identify critical stresses and reduce the risks of fatigue and resonance.

The free webinar will take place from 11:00–11:45 AM CET (UTC+1) and will be held in English. Following the presentation, you will have the opportunity to ask your individual questions during a live Q&A session.

Key Takeaways

  • Understand dynamic loads: Discover their sources and how they affect probes, sensors, and other vessel internals.

  • Prevent fatigue and vibration: Learn about measures to address mechanical stresses in stirred tank reactors.

  • Consider sensor placement: Gain insights into the mechanical integration of probes and sensors in PAT applications.
