Height of liquid in agitation tank is normally maintained equal to the
tank diameter. However, if the tank is too tall and a large liquid hold up is
desired, then two or more impellers mounted on the same shaft may be
used. The clearance between the tank bottom and the bottom most impeller
should be about (where, D = impeller diameter)
(A) 0.5 D
