To be used in various tanks we need to get your answer for agitator motor power and shaft diameter for the following agitator data:
Agitator A:
Liquid in tank: Density = 1.09 t/m3 Dynamic viscosity = 150 mPa.s Temperature = 85 degrees C (average)
Speed: 95 rpm
Length in tank = 3650 mm
Impeller: 1 row, 2 blades , 900 mm in dia.
Tank volume= 40 m3
Agitator B:
Liquid in tank: Density = 1.4 t/m3 Dynamic viscosity = 100 mPa.s Temperature = 80 degrees C (average)
Speed: 85 rpm
Length in tank = 4750 mm
Impellers: 2 rows, 2m between rows, 2 blades at each row , 1300 mm in dia.
Tank volume= 28 m3
Agitator C:
Liquid in tank: Density = 1.48 t/m3 Dynamic viscosity = 10000 mPa.s (average) Temperature = 70 degrees C (average)
Speed: 66 rpm
Length in tank = 5630 mm
Impellers: 3 rows, 1m between rows, 2 blades at each row , 800 mm in dia.
Tank volume= 15 m3
For the above agitators, I need motor powers and shaft diameters.
Have an insight or suggestion?

Re: What are the motor powers and shaft diameters for these agitators?
5 April 2011 at 1:29pmAssuming that the impeller blades are vertical plates with a width about 1/5 the diameter of the impeller:
Agitator A requires a 7.5 kW motor and a 76 mm diameter shaft
Agitator B requires a 75 kW motor and a 127 mm diameter shaft
Agitator C requires a 7.5 kW motor and a 76 mm diameter shaft
