Question: An agitated vessel ( diameter = 2 . 5 m ) is filled with an aqueous solution of 7 0 % NaOH at 8 0

An agitated vessel (diameter =2.5m) is filled with an aqueous solution of 70%NaOH at
80C(viscosity =0.12N*sm2 and density =1500kgm3) at a depth of 2m. To agitate the
solution an impeller with rotation speed of 200rpm is installed in the middle of the vessel.
There are two options of impeller to be considered and the details are presented in Table 1.
Table 1 Impeller type and details.
a) Determine the power required to run this agitated vessel using each impeller.
