PROCEDURE

General Start-up procedure

1. The power outlet is switched on.

2. All the tightening screws is fastened.

3. The working surrounding area is ensured to be dry and clean.

4. The shaft is lifted up using lifting chain attached to the shaft.

5. The experiment is carried out.

General shut-down procedure

1. Any liquid inside the tank is removed by opening the outlet valve

2. The tank is washed and rinsed to make sure no oil residue after the experiment.

3. The paddle/impeller inside the tank is removed and washed after use.

4. The power outlet is shut down.


6.1 Experiment 1

1. The tank is filled with water up to a depth of 30L.

2. Flat paddle is attached with the end of the shaft.

3. A small quantity of plastic pellet is added to the tank.

4. The speed of the impeller is turned up in small increments: 50 rpm, 100 rpm, 150m rpm
and 200 rpm. The pellets are seen to swirl around in the water showing flow patterns.

5. The movement of the pellets and the flow pattern is observed and drawn.

6. The procedures are repeated by replacing the flat paddle with other impellers : turbine
impeller and screw propeller.

7. The procedures are also repeated with the baffles fitted in the tank with each flat paddle,
turbine impeller and screw propeller.

6.2 Experiment 2

1. The tank filled with hydraulic oil up to a depth of 30 L

2. Flat paddle is attached with the end of the shaft.

3. The speed of the impeller is turned up to 50 rpm and the reading of force is recorded.

4. The speed is then turned up to 100 rpm, 150 rpm and 200 rpm with the force recorded at
the respective speed.

5. Step 3-4 is repeated with the baffles fitted in the tank.

6. The power consumed for each of the speed is calculated.
