A stirrer is used to mix chemicals in a large tank. The shaft power W supplied to the stirrer blades is a function of stirrer diameter D, liquid density ρ, liquid viscosity μ, and the angular velocity ω of the spinning blades. Use the method of repeating variables to generate a dimensionless relationship between these parameters. Modify your ∏ groups as necessary.
