Refer to Q7 and Q8, and determine the agitator speed in appropriate units for power calculation.(a) 3 rps(b) 1 rps(c) 6 rps(d) 4 rpsI got this question in a national level competition.I want to ask this question from Power Requirements for Mixing topic in chapter Fluid Flow and Mixing of Bioprocess Engineering

Answer»

Correct CHOICE is (b) 1 rps

For explanation I would SAY: N = REVOLUTIONS per sec (rps). The AGITATION speed is given in the example as 60 revolutions per minute, which when divided by 60 seconds/minute yields:

N = 60 rpm / 60 = 1 rps.
