Ultra Fine Grinder: Date: 24-10-2019

This document discusses an experiment to determine the Bond's law and Rittinger's law constants for an ultra fine grinder. Brick pieces of various sizes were fed into the grinder and the energy consumed was measured. Testing showed the energy required increased as the particle size decreased. The constants were calculated using the standard formulas for each law. Bond's law constant C was found to be 0.0010 kWhmm1/2 and Rittinger's law constant Kr was determined to be 0.095 kWhmm3/kg.

Ultra fine
Grinder
Introduction:
Many commercial powders must contain particles averaging 1 to 20 µm in size, with
substantially all particles passing a standard 325-mesh screen that has openings 44 µm
wide. Mills that reduce solids to such fine particles are called ultrafine grinders. Ultrafine
grinding of dry powder is done by grinders, such as high-speed hammer mills, provided
with internal or external classification, and by fluid-energy or jet mills. Ultrafine wet
grinding is done in agitated mills.
Ultrafine grinding techniques are those techniques which are more energy-efficient than
conventional milling techniques in the sub 100 µm range. Hammer mills work in the
principle that most materials will crush, shatter, or pulverize upon impact.
Ultrafine grinding mill is mainly used in the processing of materials such as metallurgy,
building materials, chemical industry.

Experiment No. # 9
Objective:
To determine the Bond’s law and Rittinger’s law for Ultra Fine Grinder.

Apparatus:
 Ultrafine grinder
 Digital balance,
 Stopwatch,
 Plastic bowls

Material:
Pieces of bricks

Procedure:
1. First take 2 or 3 bricks and break into medium pieces by using hammer and then measure
the mean size of each piece.

2. Weight the size feed on the balance.

3. Note down the initial reading of energy meter (Eo).

4. Switch on the Grinder and stop watch and simultaneously start feeding the material.

5. Switch Off the grinder and timer immediately after finishing the crushing.

6. Now operate empty mill and note the time to and then note the energy consumed for
empty run (Eb = E2-E1) and then net energy required for crushing is Enet.

7. Calculate Bond’s law and Rittinger’s law constants by the following formula.

Rittinger’s law Bond’s Law

E = Kr fc (1/L2 – 1/L1) E = 2C(1/L20.5 – 1/L10.5)


For this law, (P=-2) for this law, (P = -1.5)
