PL Mechanical mixing of liquids in tanks can be performed with various agitators which can be accompanied by baffles or other disturbing elements. Such elements are not fixed to any part of the mixer but move freely within the mixed volume. In this contribution, the experimental results of chaotic mixing with spherical disturbing elements are presented along with the proposed methodology for determining the mixing time based on the change of colour. The proposed methodology utilizes the captured movie, which was split into frames, and their analysis using the vTask Studio and Adobe Photoshop 7.0 software, followed by calculations in Microsoft Excel.
