4. Mission Statement Mission Statement: To create a side entry agitator test stand that allows the user to measure and calculate axial and tangential components of fluid forces, torque, and impeller speed on the motor, impeller, and shaft, incorporating a wide range of adjustable parameters.

5. Project Description Shaft protrudes through the side wall of the tank very large, under floor tanks where little headroom is available less costly than top entry mixers requires less motor torque to agitate the fluid three to five times the amount of power as a top entry mixer Rely heavily on impeller selection different diameters, physical sizes and blade profiles Previously developed top entry test-rig they currently have no way to benchmark these same impellers for side entry agitation Create a test-rig that allows reliable measurement through a range of adjustability (Impellers/Speeds/etc.) similar concepts to the top entry test rig different array of: bending moments, torque and fluid forces Very beneficial to our customer benchmark existing and future impeller designs for side entry applications.
