    The document provides information about a spreadsheet tool called Bond_Op. Work Index that estimates the operational work index of a grinding installation based on Bond's law and the Hogg & Fuersteneau power model. It describes Bond's law, which relates specific energy consumption to the work index, feed and product size. The operational work index can be calculated from plant operational data by inverting Bond's law. The spreadsheet requires input of mill dimensions, operating conditions and throughput to perform the calculations.

    About the Bond_Op. Work Index Spreadsheet ...

    Scope : The Bond_Op. Work Index spreadsheet was designed to estimate the Operational Work Index of a given grinding installation of known dimensions and operating conditions, based on the traditional Bond's Law and the Hogg & Fuersteneau Power Model (see Mill Power_Ball Mills spreadsheet for further details on such model).

    Theoretical Framework : Undoubtedly, the extensive work of Fred C. Bond ("The Third Theory of Comminution", AIME Trans.,Vol. 193, p. 484, 1952. Also in Mining Engineering, May 1952) has been widely recognized as a very significant contribution to a first understanding of the operational response of conventional ball mills in various grinding circuits. His Third Theory or "Law" of Comminution has become the most traditionally accepted framework for the evaluation of existing grinding operations as well as the design of new installations : E = 10 Wi (1/P801/2 1/F801/2) where : E F80 P80 Wi = = = = Specific Energy Consumption, kWh/ton ground. 80% passing size in the Fresh Ore Feed Stream, microns. 80% passing size in the Final Ground Product, microns. Bond's Work Index, indicative of the hardness of the ore, kWh/ton.

    The Bond's Law so allows, as a first approach, to estimate the energy demand (kWh) required to grind each ton of ore. Such Specific Energy Consumption determines in turns the Capacity of the grinding section, by the expression : M = P/E where : M P = Fresh Ore Throughput (not including Circulating Load), ton/hr. = Net Mill Power Demand, kW.

    Bond's Work Index may be estimated directly from operational data (whenever available) from back-calculation of the first equation above. In such case is denoted as the Operational Work Index : Wio = E / 10 (1/P801/2 1/F801/2) Data Input : All data required by the calculation routine must be defined in each corresponding unprotected Turquesa background cell of the here attached Data File worksheet. blue background cells contain the results of the corresponding formulas there defined and are protected to avoid any accidental editing.
