Determine the power requirements for 3 m diameter, six-blade flatblade turbine impeller mixer running at 15 rpm in a 10 m diametermixing tank. Assume the fluid being mixed is water.
A steel pulley with a mean rim radius of 120 mm is rotated at a speed of 1100 rpm. If the mass of the rim is 5 kgs, What is the centrifugal force?
A 5-inch diameter centrifugal pump operating at 1000 RPM is geometrically similar to another 7.5 inch diameter pump when operating at 1400 RPM. The working fluid is water for both cases. Calculate the flow rate, head and brake power for the smaller pump if the flow rate, head and brake power for the largest diameter pump is 1000 gal/min, 50 ft and 15 hp respectively considering the point of operation previously described.
