1. Draw schematic diagrams for vertical and horizontal elutriators and explain
the working principle. [5]
3. Why swirling is undesirable during liquid mixing? What are the possible ways
by which swirling can be prevented? [5]

5. What are ideal and real screens? Explain with qualitative cumulative plots. A
solid mixture was screened through a standard 10-mesh screen. The feed,
overflow and underflow contain 38, 79 and 22 weight percent of oversized
material. What is the screen effectiveness if you want to remove the fines?
[10]
6. A constant pressure filtration test gave date set that can fit the following
expression where t is in sec and V is in litre
𝑑𝑡
= 9.3𝑉 + 8.5
𝑑𝑉
The cake is compressible and the compressibility coefficient (in the
expression α = αoΔPs) of the cake is 0.3.
What will be the time taken for the collection of 3.5 litre of filtrate at a
filtration pressure drop twice that is used in the test. [10]
