A centrifuge with a bowl which is 500 mm long and has an inside radius of 50.5 mm is to be used to separate crystals from a dilute aqueous mother liquor. The optimum speed of rotation for the centrifuge is 60,000 rpm, and the discharge weir is adjusted so that the depth of liguid at the bowl wall is 38.5 mm. The crystals are approximately spherical and none are smaller that 2 10 m in diameter. The maximum volumetric flow rate in m of the mother liquor that can be processed by this centrifuge if all the crystals have to be removed is...

The answer is 0.054. Please show detailed solution. Thank you.
