THE OPTIMAL BALL DIAMETER IN A MILL
2012-5-15 · As the ball charges and narrow, the size fractions of the samples have different masses. In this research, the grinding efficiency has also been observed through the specific mill throughput per ground product, per unit mass of the ball charge Q s (kg/h/kg). The specific throughput has been calculated at grinding time t = 3 min.
