Arapid-mixing basin is to be designed for a water coagulation plant, and the design flow for the basin is 15,140m3/d. the basin is to be square with a depth equal to 1.25 times the width. the velocity gradient is to be 900 s-1 (at 10 °c), and the detention time is 30s. determine: a) the basin dimensions. b) the input power required. c) the impeller speed if a vane-disc impeller with six flat blades is employed and the tank is baffled. the impeller is to be 50% of the basin width.

Refrigerant 134a enters an insulated compressor operating at steady state as saturated vapor at -26°c with a volumetric flow rate of 0.18 m3/s. refrigerant exits at 9 bar, 70°c. changes in kinetic and potential energy from inlet to exit can be ignored. determine the volumetric flow rate at the exit, in m3/s, and the compressor power, in kw.

Asingle-geared blanking press has a stroke of 200 mm and a rated capacity of 320 kn. a cam driven ram is assumed to be capable of delivering the full press load at constant force during the last 15 percent of a constant-velocity stroke. the camshaft has an average speed of 90 rev/min and is geared to the flywheel shaft at a 6: 1 ratio. the total work done is to include an allowance of 16 percent for friction a) estimate the maximum energy fluctuation b) find the rim weight for an effective diameter of 1.2 m and a coefficient of speed fluctuation of 0.10
