A cylindrical bioreactor of diameter 3 m has four baffles. A Rushton turbine mounted in the reactor has a diameter one third the tank diameter and is operated at a speed of 90 rpm. The density of the fluid is approximately I g cm^-3. The reactor is used to culture an anaerobic organism that does not require gas sparging. The broth can be assumed Newtonian. As the cells grow, the viscosity of the broth increases. when the viscosity is 1000 times greater than water, estimate the power required to achieve turbulence.
