The SAG Power Index (SPI) test (Starkey Dobby, 1996) uses a benchscale SAG mill test to determine the specific energy of an industrial SAG mill. The test is operated in closed circuit and the time required to grind the material to a P 80 of mm is used to predict AG/SAG specific energy using Equation 3 and other powerbased models available in CEET (Comminution Economic Evaluation
SAG mills use a ball charge of 8 to 21%. The largest SAG mill is 42'' () in diameter, powered by a 28 MW (38,000 HP) motor. A SAG mill with a 44'' () diameter and a power of 35 MW (47,000 HP) has been designed. Attrition between grinding balls and ore particles causes grinding of finer particles. SAG mills are characterized by their
· I need to calculate the sag in power lines and, also, I need to transform the wind velocity into pressure or force. How can I do it? RE: How do I calculate the sag in power lines? 2. BJC (Electrical) 20 Jun 01 13:56. The formula is t= (S^2*w)/8d where t= tension, s= span, w= weight per ft and d= sag. There is more to it than that of course. Call your local Okonite cable rep and get a copy of
Calculate sag ball mill circulating load effect of ball ss removal on sag mill performance was noted that the high recirculating load of steel resulted in ball load in the mill, prior to the removal of the ss, was calculated from. get price. Ball Mill Circulating Load Mineral ProcessingMetallurgy . Calculating a grinding circuit''s circulating loads based
On the other hand, an excessive sag allowance is costly to the power company in that too much sag uses more material in the form of extra wire. Calculating the sag between lines and finding an optimal value is straightforward enough mathematical exercise. The Geometry of Sagging Wires. Let L be the horizontal distance between adjacent towers (assumed to be the same height, often not a valid
· Being able to properly calculate fan power is important for many different applications, whether you are calculating the power of an industrial fan or a fan. When calculating this, you will be able to determine the power that a fan requires theoretically, but you must be aware that the actual power that the fan requires (called brake horsepower) will always be greater than what you
· Ball Mill Power Calculation Example A wet grinding ball mill in closed circuit is to be fed 100 TPH of a material with a work index of 15 and a size
Calculation of Sag and Tension at an unequal level supports. In hilly areas or sloping grounds, the supports are not usual at the same level. For the calculation of sag and tension at unequal supports level consider a conductor AOB. The portion of OA and OB may be treated as catenaries of half span x and lx respectively shown in the figure below. Let, h – difference span length between A
Thus sag is allowed to have during conductor suspension. Some important points are to be mentioned: When same leveled two supports hold the conductor, bend shape arises in the conductor. Sag is very small with respect to the span of the conductor. Sag span curve is like parabolic. The tension in each point of the conductor acts always tangentially.
Sag and Tension: Sag is an interesting topic to generally see a lot of overhead lines on our in general words can be said that distance between the highest point of electric poles or towers and the lowest point of a conductor connected between two poles or will know how to calculate sag and sag formula.
the correct power required to grind ore in a SAG mill, by developing ore hardness variability functions for the ore body to be mined. This paper describes the next step in the SAG design process, which is choosing a SAG mill to accomplish the required specified design performance. At the test work stage, each ore hardness data point is a unique and discreet bit of information that represents
the SAG mills throughput, power consumption and accordingly, specific energy. The feed size distribution together with the ore characteristics (hardness, lithology, alterations, etc.) are the most important factors affecting the SAG mills performance. Some operations have recognised an opportunity in the relationship between feed size and mill performance and manipulate feed size to obtain
· January 13, 2018 Engineering Guides / Overhead Power Lines / Power Lines / Sag and Tension. Sample Calculation of Sag and Tension of Transmission Line – Even Elevation. Posted by admin. This is an example calculation for sag and tension in transmission line. You may opt to review first the fundamental principles and formulas from the previous post. Creep is not considered as a
· Power Use modifies a recipe''s required µI amount by the given percentage. "Power Use: 80%" means a recipe will only require 80% of its default energy cost to be processed. However, the SAG Mill always works at a set energy usage rate; if a recipe requires less energy, the job will be completed faster. Therefore, 80% Power Use equals 25% faster
power draw of AG/SAG and ball mills. Note that the ball mill operating work index is applied only on the portion that needs the additional grinding (Q2), which renders to the AG/SAG mill the credit for the fraction of the material that had been already ground to final product (Q1). To calculate the operating work indices, equations [5] and [6] must be solved. The equations contain three
Calculation of Sag: As discussed earlier in this post, enough Sag shall be provided in overhead transmission line to keep the tension within the safe limit. The tension is generally decided by many factors like wind speed, ice loading, temperature variations etc. Normally the tension in conductor is kept one half of the ultimate tensile strength of the conductor and therefore safety factor for
· AG/SAG Mill Power. In designing crushing–grinding flow sheets, correct estimations of mill power draw are important as it serves as one of the deciding factors for selecting an option between AG/SAG mills. In most cases, the circuit with the least or optimal power consumption is the preferred choice. The mill power is usually determined in a laboratory scale mill and if possible, followed by
A simple equation for calculating net power draft is P 3 cD m LKl kW () Kl is the loading factor which can be obtained from Figures for the popular mill types. 3 c is the mill speed measured as a fraction of the critical speed. More reliable models for the prediction of the power drawn by ball, semiautogenous and fully autogenous mills have been developed by Morrell and by
In ancient time, the mills were operated with muscle power (by hands), water animals and wind. They were totally based on the mechanical energy by natural resources and living are many types of mills which are used in the grinding industries. Today we will discuss about two important mill, sag mill and ball mill. Sag Mill vs Ball Mill: SemiAutogenous Grinding Mill – SAG Mill

AG/SAG mills can accomplish the same size reduction work as two or three stages of crushing and screening, a rod mill, and some or all of the work of a ball mill. Because of the range of mill sizes available, AG/SAG milling can often be accomplished with fewer lines than in a conventional rod mill/ball mill circuit. A diagram of types of AG/SAG mills [image: (13565)] A diagram of types of
Enter the width of a mill shell liner. Note this is not the width of a lifter! You may use the Mill Liner Effective Width calculation to determine this value. The mill critical speed will be calculated based on the diameter (above) less twice this shell liner width. Mill Actual RPM: Enter the measured mill rotation in revolutions per minute.
SAG mills mimic the same shortcoming. It follows that in order to obtain the specifi c energy (SE) to achieve a certain transfer size, based on the 80 per cent passing value, an ineffi ciency factor must be applied to the SE of single stage ball mills, rod mills or AG/SAG mills when calculating power according to the Bond Third Theory method. Rod mill and AG/SAG mill products are similar and
