    Design of Flash Mixer

    For design of flash mixer , following are assumptions


    Detention time ( D. T. ) = 20 to 60 sec.
    Velocity gradient = 300 to 600 𝑠𝑒𝑐 −1
    Height of tank = 1 to 3 mt. = 2.5 mt
    Tangential velocity = 3 𝑚⁄𝑠𝑒𝑐 at the tip
    Relative velocity = 3⁄4 of the Tangential velocity
    Diameter of impeller to the diameter of tank ratio = 0.2 to 0.4 mt.
    3 625
    Here , Q = 15 Mld = 625 𝑚 ⁄ℎ𝑟 = 60 𝑋 60 = 0.1736 𝑚3⁄
    𝑆𝑒𝑐
    Step 1] To Find volume of flash mixer ;
    V = Q x Detention time
    = 0.1736 x 40
    = 7 𝑚3
    Step 2] To Find Area and diameter of flash mixer ;
    Let the depth of Flash mixer = 2.5 mt
    𝑉 7
    A = ℎ = 2.5 = 2.8 𝑚2
    𝜋
    We Have ; Area = 4 x 𝑑2
    𝜋
    2.8 = x 𝑑2
    4

    d = 1.89 mt. = 2 mt.


    Step 3] To Find Actual volume of flash mixer ;
    Volume = Area x height
    𝜋
    = x 22 x 2.5
    4

    = 7.854 𝑚3

    Step 4] Power required :


    √𝑃
    We have G =
    𝜇 𝑥 𝐶

    Where P – Input power


    G – Velocity Gradient as function of input power
    = 450 𝑠𝑒𝑐 −1
    1
    𝜇 - Absolute viscosity of water
    = 0.8 x 10−3 poise
    C - Capacity or volume of water in Flash Mixer
    = 7.854 𝑚3
    ∴ P = 1272.34 Watt

    Step 5] To Design Blades and Impeller ;


    Diameter of Impeller = 0.4 x Diameter of flash mixer
    = 0.4 x 2
    = 0.8 mt.
    Assuming speed of Impeller = 100 r.p.m.
    2𝜋𝑟𝑛
    ∴ Velocity at tip of Impeller = 60

    Where, r – Radius of Impeller = 0.8⁄2 = 0.4 mt


    n – Number of Revolutions = 100
    2 𝜋 𝑥 0.4 𝑥 100
    𝑉𝑖 = 60

    = 6.50 𝑚⁄𝑠𝑒𝑐
