“…The following parameters could be considered small compared to the real material parameters and to the parameters used in other SSDEM simulations (Mishra & Rajamani 1992); however, as explained before, the choice of parameters in general has more to do with the specific phenomenon to be analyzed than with the simulated materials. Here, we will only address the performance of the algorithm to calculate gravitational forces.…”

“…The relevance of the method when applied to milling lies in its ability to account for the effects of a number of variables explicitly, including mill speed, mill filling, ball size distribution and liner configuration. It was first applied to simulate ball milling by Mishra and Rajamani (1992), who originally described media motion in two dimensions. The technique is now packaged in a number of commercial as well as open source software, being able to describe media motion in three dimensions, which is critical to provide the quantitative information required for mill simulation (Powell and McBride, 2006;Morrison and Cleary, 2008).…”

“…While such studies provide some insight into the mechanics of media milling, so far they are of limited value in the analysis and prediction of mill performance. To our knowledge, discrete-element analysis, analogous to recent studies on tumbling and centrifugal ball mills [14,15], has not been attempted for stirred-media mills.…”

“…In tumbling ball milling, grinding of higher pulp density slurries typically produces flatter breakage distributions. This effect often necessitates the use of dispersants when the slurry density and viscosity become too high or the mill contents become 14 too fine. In their study, Mankosa et al [24] found that the addition of a dispersant significantly improved the grinding efficiency.…”
