The effect of increasing impeller speed is to increase the air flow rate and gas holdup in the cell. Simulations with flotationics showed that the gravitational force acting on the attached particles is significant. The effect is a decrease in the bubble rise velocity which in turn affects the flotation rate as predicted by the model
