A new home base (HB) type impeller with 3S performance (simple, speedy and stable) was developed based on the streak line visualization method (Kato et al., 2015a, 2015b). The HB impeller was employed as a magnetic stirrer for practical use in experimental processes. The mixing time of the HB impeller for various aqueous solutions was found to be shorter than that of a normal cylindrical stirring bar.
