sag mill power draw

Mill power draw models - SAGMILLING.COM

2020-3-22  Mill Power Draw Models. The mill power draw models are used to predict how much power will be consumed by a particular type of mill, mill geometry and set of mill operating conditions. This power is transferred to the ore and used to predict the throughput when combined with the specific energy consumption models.

A comparison of SAG mill power models

SAG Mill power draw models are used in mill design and grinding circuit modelling to predict how much power will be consumed by a particular mill geometry and operating configuration. This paper will compare SAG mill models by Morrell, Loveday (using "Power Numbers" published by Barratt) and Austin against several published mill surveys.
