The details of the ball mill motor are as follows. Power = 12.4 kW or 16.7 HP and the speed is 343 rpm. 3.1. Load calculations (prior to failure analysis) The ball mill can experience failure based on the maximum normal stress theory as the working loads acting in the ball mill is concentrated across the seam of the mill periphery.

Abstract. Discrete element (DE) simulation of a ball mill with a large number of particles is challenging when each particle is considered. Similarity principle could be adopted to reduce the number of particles in a simulation whilst still maintaining the accurate flow behaviour of particles. This paper presents a scaling relationship between ...
