Modelling SAG milling power and specific energy
01/01/2015#0183;#32;The ball charge is a function of the bulk fraction of the SAG mill volume (Jb) occupied by balls; the ore retained in the mill is the result of the volumetric filling which depends on the ore size distribution (specially the % +6 and the % 6 +1), on the rotational speed (N/Nc) and on the solid concentration by weight fraction inside the mill which is a function of the solid
