Abstract
The results of a detailed study on material flow through a grate-discharge (open-end) ball mill versus an overflow-discharge (constricted-end) ball mill are presented to emphasize the effect of discharge-end design on mill transport characteristics. The effect of feed rate to the mill, mill rotational speed and ball load on the residence time distribution of the flow regime, the Peclet number and the material hold-up are discussed. The observed transport characteristics of the two types of mill are qualitatively interpreted in terms of a mechanistic model for particle flow through the mills.
