BIOPROCESS ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 14.1 : In differential centrifugation of cells with diameter D in centimeter, the square of D is given by D x D = [18n ln (RF / RI) ] / [ (RP - RFF) Wt ] where n is the fluid viscosity (poise), RF is the final radius of rotation (cm), RI is the initial radius of rotation (cm), RP is cell density (g / ml), RFF is the fluid density (g/ml), W the square for the rotational velocity in (radians / s) (radians / s), t is the time required to sediment from RI to RF (s). Derive an equation for W as a function for D, n, RF, RI, RP, RFF and t, with the stated units above, in radian & degree.

BIOPROCESS ENGINEERING - ANSWER 14.1 : By algebraic formula, W = [18n ln (RF / RI) ] / [ (D x D) (RP - RFF) t ] where W is in (radians / s) (radians / s). One radian is approximately 57.288 degrees, then the W (radian) = (57.288) (57.288) W (degree) or W (in radian) = 3281.96 W (in degree).
