To ensure turbulent conditions and minimum mixing time during agitation with a turbine impeller, the Reynolds number must be at least 104. A stirred laboratory-scale fermenter with a turbine impeller 5 cm in diameter is operated at 800 rpm. If the density of broth being stirred is close to that of water, what is the upper limit for viscosity of the suspension if adequate mixing is to be maintained?
