The study of the influence of the lifter height on the charge motion, velocity profile and power draw of a laboratory tumbling mill using DEM simulations

Tumbling mills are considered to be among the most energy intensive devices in comminution circuits and are designed to achieve size reduction and transport. These functions are influenced by the mill speed, filling and the configuration of the lifter bars attached to the mill shell (height, width,...
