The ratio, (propeller agitator dia/tank dia) is normally taken as____________________?
Correct answer: A. 0.15-030
- A. 0.15-030
- B. 0.5-0.65
- C. 0.75-0.85
- D. 0.60-0.90
Explanation
A propeller is a high-speed agitator, so its diameter is kept relatively small compared with the tank diameter. The usual ratio is about 0.15 to 0.30, whereas turbine agitators generally use larger ratios.
