Example :- Calculate the power in W/m required for mixing an oil of relative density 0.93 and viscosity 18 N.s/m² in a tank of 15 Cm diameter and 20 Cm height filled to three-fourths of its volume with oil, if the speed of the agitator is 500 rpm. Calculate the speed of agitator if the same mixing is carried out at the same Reynolds number in a doubled volume tank.

You have been asked to provide a design for a rapid mix tank at a water treatment plant which has an average water temperature of 60°F. The tank is to have a detention time (ta = HRT) of 1.5 seconds, a mixing intensity (G) of 1,428/second, and treats a flow (Q) of 9.4 mgd. Calculate the Motor Power (Pmotor, in HP) required to achieve the desired G value if the transfer efficiency is 80%. Provide your answer to the hundredths place (0.01). Be very careful with units (they need to cancel appropriately) and don't forget to report your answer in HP, not ft-Ib/sec).
An elliptical stack has a diameters of 12 m and 8 m at its base and diverging uniformly to a diameter of 16 m and 12 m at a height of 40 m. A certain gas having a specific weight of 10 N/m3, enters the stack at the bottom. Its specific weight increases uniformly until at the top where it has a value of 12 N/m3. Calculate the velocity in m/s and the discharge in m3/s for every 10 m up the stack if the velocity at the bottom is 5 m/s.

An ESP was designed to treat 5500 m3/mm of flue gas from a coal combustion unit and achieve a 98,5% PM removal efficiency. A certain drift velocity was assumed. The unit was built with exactly the collect ion. area called for in the design, but by the time the unit was started up, the actual flow rate had increased to 5900 m3/min, and the actual efficiency was really 98,5%,. Was the actual drift velocity the same as had been assumed? Prove your answer mathematically.
