Modelling the Specific Grinding Energy and Ball-Mill ...

Bond work index: Wj= 26.0 kWhlshort ton From Eq. (6), the specific grinding energy is: W = 77.34 kWhlshort ton or W = 85.23 kWhlt For throughput 400 tIh production, the total required ball-mill power is: 85.23 kWhlt x 400 tIh = 34092 kW. If six (6) ball-mills are used, the power drawn from each mill is: (34092/6) = 5682 kW.

Ball Mill Capacity and Power Consumption Relationship to ...

The acceleration factor of the ball or rod mass is a function of the peripheral speed of the mill. Thus. n = c9np/√D, the above equation becomes P = f1 (D²)·f5 (πD c9 np/√D) = cs np D2.5. As a first approximation, the capacity, T, of a mill may be considered as a function of the force acting inside the mill.

Optimization of mill performance by using

Mill power Usually, plant operators use mill power readings as an indicator of ball filling degree and, often, try to keep it at the maximum level. It is well known that the mill absorbed power depends on operating parameters other than ball level, such as pulp density and liner configuration. Figure 2 shows that there is no linear relation between
