First, it is established that charge motion in ball and SAG mills can be computed with ease using DEM. The simulation results in the case of the ball mill are verified by comparing snapshots of charge motion. Furthermore, it is shown that power draw of ball as well as SAG mills can be predicted within 10%.

WhatsApp: +86 18203695377Abstract. Computer simulation of ball mill cicuits has been found to be very valuable for optimisation where existing plant data can be used to calibrate the mathematical models used. However, as by definition no existing plant is available for calibration in greenfield scenarios, the use of simulation in ball mill circuit design has been limited.
