MUO 3RD MID QUESTIONS

1a) with neat sketch , explain construction and working principle of jet mixers .
2) what are the three main types of impellers for low to moderate viscosity liquids and briefly explain
about impellers for highly viscous liquids .
3a) what are different separation methods followed in sorting clarifiers and discuss them in detail .
3b) what are clarifiers and thickeners ?
4a) when the particles which are different in size are moving in a long vertical pipe having same drag
coefficient 0.29 through the fluid i.e., water
Given that : diameter of the pipe is 0.11 mm
particle mass , m = 6.14 103
now, find out the terminal settling velocity of particles to settle down on the tube .
4b) what is rate of sedimentation ?
4c) A disc turbine with six flat blades is installed centrally in a vertical baffled tank 2mm in diameter .
The turbine is 0.67 mm in diameter and is positioned 0.67 mm above the bottom of the tank . the
turbine blades are 134 mm wide ,the tank filled a depth of 2mm with aqeous solution of 50% NaoH 65
, which has a viscosity of 12cp and a density of 1500 g/cm3 . the turbine impeller turns at 90 rpm .
what is the power required to operate the turbine ?
5a) how and with what rate different zones vary as sedimentation proceed ?
5b) discuss briefly about modifiers and their classes of chemicals.
6a) explain dispersants , flocculants .
7a) how solids are separated from liquids .
7b) describe the applicationsof froth floatation .
