Agitators are widely used for mixing purposes in chemical industries. Researchers want to estimate the actual power (P) required for agitation using a geometrically similar one-eighth model. For an un- baffled vessel, P is expected to depend on the rotation speed, the impeller diameter, acceleration due to gravity g and the density of the fluid being agitated. The following data apply Prototype Impeller diameter, D, = 20 cm Density, p = 1200 kg/m³ Rotation speed, N = 10 s Model D, = ? p = 1200 kg/m3 N = ? a) Use dimensional analysis to develop a suitable set of dimensionless groups for this problem. b) For the model, determine the values indicated in the table with a question mark. c) What will be the power ratio Pm/Pp?

Aluminum atoms are to be diffused into a silicon wafer using both predeposition and drive-in heat treatments; the background concentration of Al in this silicon material is known to be 2.5 x 101⁹ atoms/m³. The drive-in diffusion treatment is to be carried out at 1050°C for a period of 4.0 h, which gives a junction depth x; of 3.0 μm. Compute the predeposition diffusion time at 950°C if the surface concentration is maintained at a constant level of 2 x 1025 atoms/m³.
