Ball Mill (Perfect Mixing, Dynamic)

Description

This article describes a dynamic implementation of the Perfect Mixing ball mill model outlined by Napier-Munn et al. (1996).

The dynamic version uses the same underlying theory and structure as the steady-state Perfect Mixing ball mill model. For a full description of the steady-state model, see Ball Mill (Perfect Mixing).

Excel

The Perfect Mixing ball mill model is not implemented in Excel in dynamic form for practical purposes. Excel is not an ideal platform for dynamic simulation and SysCAD (or similar) is preferred.

The dynamic model is, however, included in Excel in a run-to-steady-state mode where all feed and input parameters are fixed and time steps are progressed until the computed load and discharge stabilises.

This mode is useful for extracting separated $R_{i}$ and $D_{i}$ functions from steady-state data such as plant surveys or other model calibrations (including the steady-state Perfect Mixing ball mill model).

The run-to-steady-state dynamic Perfect Mixing ball mill model may be invoked from the Excel formula bar with the following function call:

=mdUnit_BallMill_PerfectMixingRiDi(Parameters as Range, Size as Range, MillFeed as Range, OreSG As Range, Appearance as Range, WorkIndexSim as Range, RKnotPositions as Range, RKnotsOrig as Range, Classification as Range)

Invoking the function with no arguments will print Help text associated with the model, including a link to this page.
