Study of the grinding balls distribution inside the mill
The grinding balls distribution inside the mill is presented in three parts:
1. the sampling campaign
2. the analysis of the samples
3. the analyse of the results and the interpretation
Other mill power formulas
The paper describes two well-known ball mill power formulas. These formulas are used in the mining industry but also in the cement area:
1. the Bond power formula
2. the Hogg and Fuerstenau power formula
Calculators are also available in the tools page.
Particle Size Distribution - Representation
This paper describes the methods to represent a particle size distribution. 5 methods are presented: Linear, Linear with X- log scale, Log-Normal, Gaudin-Shuhmann and Rosin-Rammler distributions. An example of linear regression is also detailed.
