Power for Agitation and Scale-Up. 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 diameter of 0.61 m and height 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. (a) Calculate the kW power of the turbine and kW/m³ of volume. (b) Scale up this system to a vessel having a volume of 100 times the original for the case of equal mass transfer rates. %3D 245 kW/m3
