Mechanical Engineering

1. A practical method of doing the scale-up of cylindricalmixing tanks and agitator blades is to keep constant the power perunit volume of tank. It is desired to increase by 3 times thevolume of a mixing tank. How should the tank diameter and stirrerspeed change? Consider that the mixing tanks are geometricallysimilar. The power supplied to the agitator, P, can be consideredas a function of the diameter of the agitator, D, its angularvelocity, w, density, d, and viscosity, u, of the liquid.
