Abstract
As a first step of studies of hydrodynamics in shake culture, we visualized flow in a flask on a rotary shaker.
A laser light sheet method with nylon tracer particles was applied to the visualization.
It was found that flow in a flask could be classified into two regions: a ‘stagnant’ region where flow speed was relatively low and spatial variations in flow directions were high, and a ‘bulk’ region where flow speed was relatively high and flow directions were relatively parallel.
When the rotation speed was low (80 rpm) the difference in flow speed in the two regions was less clear than when the rotation speed was 100 rpm.
