Question
A turbine agitator having six flat blades and a disk has a diameter of 0.203 m and is used in a tank having a diameters of 0.61 m. The width W=0,0405 m. Four baffles are used having a width of 0.051 m. The turbine operates at 275 rpm in a liquid having a density of 909 kg/m3 and viscosity of 0.020 Pa.s. Calculate the kW power of the turbine and kW.m3 of volume.
