About the VertiMillSim_Reverse Spreadsheet ...
Scope :
The VertiMillSim_Reverse spreadsheet was designed to simulate the Size-by-Size Mass Balance around any given
Vertical Mill grinding section, under the Reverse configuration (see Flowsheet), operating at various conditions.
Theoretical Framework :
- The Grinding Model :
For the simulation of the ball mill response, this routine is based on the so called Modern Theory of Comminution. This
theory introduced two new sets of parameters : the Selection Function S and the Breakage Function B. The first set –
also referred to as Grindability – relates to the grinding kinetics of each independent particle and the second set – also
referred to as Distribution of Primary Fragments – characterizes the size distribution of the fragments produced as a
result of breakage events.
The Figure below helps define both concepts with greater clarity. Consider that at any given instant t, the size distribution
of the mineral charge in a hypothetical batch mill is quantified by the fractions f i (i = 1, n) retained on the n different
screens represented on the left of such Figure. After a time interval Dt, the resulting size distribution is represented on the
right of the same Figure. During this time interval, some particles will be fractured and their fragments redistributed to the
lower screens. For the particles retained on mesh ‘i+1’ (the ‘i’ fraction), the Selection Function Si (min-1) denotes the
fractional breakage velocity; that is, the fraction of the particles in the size range [d i+1 , di] which are fractured, per unit of
time. Therefore, the product (SiDt) represents the fraction of the material retained on mesh ‘i+1’, at time t, that will be
fractured by the action of the grinding media, during the following time period Dt. Complementarily, the Breakage
Function bij denotes the fraction, by weight, of the fragments arising from the breakage of the particles retained on mesh
‘j+1’ to be retained on the lower ‘i+1’ mesh.

It is customary to define mesh ‘1’ as the coarsest opening and ‘n’ as the finest opening. Then, by definition :
i+1
Bij = S bkj (1)
k=n
represents the cumulative fraction of fragments from the breakage of particles retained on mesh ‘j’ that will become finer
than mesh ‘i’.
With reference to the Figure above, it is then possible to establish, for each size fraction ‘i’, the following population
balance of particles :
[Particles in fraction ‘i’ at time (t+Dt)] = [Particles in fraction ‘i’ at time t]

- [Particles in fraction ‘i’ broken during the time interval Dt]
+ [New particles added to fraction ‘i’ as a result of the breakage
of particles originally retained in the coarser fractions (j = 1, i-1)]
then, if H represents the total weight of ore in the mill :
fi(t+Dt) H = fi(t) H - SiDtfi(t) H + bi1S1Dtf1(t) H + bi2S2Dtf2(t) H + … + bi,i-1Si-1Dtfi-1(t) H ; for i = 1, 2, …, n (2)
Considering the limiting condition when Dt approaches zero, the expression above reduces to the system of first order
differential equations :
1
d(fi)/dt = -Si fi + S bij Sj fj ; for i = 1, 2, …, n (3)
j = i-1
which constitutes the General Grinding Model, in its differential form.
The analytical solution of this complex system of differential equations is fortunately known, under the restrictive
assumption that the parameters S and B are invariant with time; so giving rise to particular solution of the general system
denoted ‘Linear Model’, which in its matrix form is expressed as :
f = ( T J T-1 ) f° (4)
where :
f = {fi | i = 1, 2, …, n} = vector containing the size distribution of the mill discharge (ground product),
f° = {fi° | i = 1, 2, …, n} = vector containing the size distribution of the mill feed,
T = {Tij | i,j = 1, 2, …, n} = lower triangular matrix of values T ij recursively defined as :
Tij = 0 ; when i < j
Tij = 1 ; when i = j
i-1
Tij = S ( bik Sk Tkj )/( Si – Sj ) ; when i > j
k=j

J = {Jij | i,j = 1, 2, …, n} = diagonal matrix of values J ij defined as :

Jij = exp (-Sit) ; when i = j ( batch grinding)
Jij = (1 + Sit/N)-N ; when i = j (continuous grinding)
Jij = 0 ; in all other cases
and where t - the average mean residence time - and N are parameters characteristic of the Residence Time Distribution
(RTD) of the mineral slurry in the mill, here represented by :
E(t) = [ NN (t/t)N-1 / t G(N) ] exp (-Nt/t) (5)
referred to as the ‘N-Mixers in Series Model’ and where the parameter N may be approximated by the effective
(Length/Diameter) ratio of the mill.
The grinding model parameters (the Selection and Breakage parameters) are different for different particle sizes. Such
dependence is here represented by the following relationships :
- For the Selection Function :
Si = a0 (di*)a1 / [ 1 + (di* / dcrit)a2 ] (6)

with :
di* = (di · di+1)0.5 = average particle size of the ‘i-th’ fraction.
An expanded form of this expression - also available in this simulation routine - is given by :
Si = a0 (di*)a1 / [ 1 + (di* / dcrit1)a2 ] / [ 1 + (dcrit2/di* )a3 ] (6e)
- For the Breakage Function :
Bij = b0 (di/dj+1)b1 + (1- b0) (di/dj+1)b2 (7)
An expanded form of this expression - also available in this simulation routine - is obtained by replacing b0 in
Equation 7 by :
b0j = b00(dj+1/1000) -b01 , never > 1 (7e)
These expanded forms for Si and Bij are intended to provide the model greater descriptive flexibility when tuning
the model to actual specific grinding systems (see VertiMillParam_Reverse) but, since they increment the total
number of ore characteristic parameters to be estimated, its use should be avoided whenever possible.
In any case, the proposed expanded forms reduce to the normal forms if a02 and b01 are set equal to zero.
Not considering the expanded forms, the above expressions considerably reduce the number of ore characteristic
parameters to a maximum of seven (a0, a1, a2, dcrit, b0, b1 and b2) and simplify the computation of the (n-1) Si‘s values and
the n(n-1)/2 Bij’s values required for the evaluation of the model.

The critical role of the Specific Energy Consumption E (kWh/ton) becomes explicit in the above formulations through a
simple change of variables, when introducing the Specific Selection Function parameter as :
SiE = Si (H/P) ; i = 1, 2, ..., n (8)
and recognizing that:
E = t (P/H) (batch grinding)

E = t (P/H) (continuous grinding) (9)
where P represents the Net Mill Power Draw (kW), it may be concluded that :
S iE E = S i t (batch grinding)
or : S iE E = Si t (continuous grinding) (10)
Therefore, it is enough to replace in Equations 4 above the products (S it) or (Sit) by the product (SiEE) to obtain the
equations of the Linear Grinding Model in terms of the Specific Selection Function, S iE.
For the purpose of estimating the Net Power Draw of a typical VertiMill, reference is made to the work of Nitta,
Furuyama, Bissombolo and Mori Model (“Estimation of the Motor Power of the Tower Mill through Dimensional
Analysis”, Proc. XXIII International Mineral Processing Congress, pp.158-161, Sep. 2006):
Pnet = h Pgross = K (H*Jb)0.884 S2.232 DG N1.232
where :
Pgross = gross power draw of the mill (kW) = Pnet / h.

h = electrical and power transmission efficiency, °/1.
DG = effective gap between the mill wall and the screw, m.
H = effective mill charge chamber height, m.
N = rotation speed of the screw; expressed in rps.
Jb = ball volumetric fractional mill filling, °/1 (including the balls and the interstitial voids in
between such balls).
K = Power constant (proposed default value: 312).
- The Hydrocyclone Model : (see Files Cyclosim_Single and Cyclobal_Single)
- Simulation of Grinding/Classification Circuits :
The mathematical simulation of the response of grinding/classification circuits, like the one represented here in Flowsheet,
requires the proper combination of the unit grinding and classification models. As a result of the circulating load stream,
both models can not be solved independently : the feed to the mill is affected by the cyclones discharge stream which
depends on the cyclones feed and this cyclones feed is affected by the mill discharge, which in turns depends on the mill
feed. Such interdependence condition implies that the system must be solved with the aid of numerical convergence
algorithms, starting from an initial guessed value for the Circulating Load ratio (defined as the ratio of the massflowrate of
solids in the cyclones discharge stream to the massflowrate of solids in the cyclones overflow stream). For such purposes,
the present VertiMillSim_Reverse simulator makes use of the Goal Seek tool available in Microsoft Excel.

Data Input and Program Execution :
The data required by the simulator must be defined in each corresponding unprotected white background cell - inside the
red double-lined border - of the here attached Data_File worksheet. Gray background cells contain the results of the
corresponding formulas there defined and are protected to avoid any accidental editing.
In addition to the above, the user is requested to provide an initial guess of the Circulating Load ratio in Cell E25. Finally,
the system is solved by single clicking on the macro button ITERATE, next to Cell E25.
Important Notice : ITERATE ... must be clicked every time any element of input data gets to be modified.
After clicking ITERATE, Cell E27 must display a zero value; otherwise, the current outputs are not valid.
Calculation results are presented in the Reports worksheet and graphically summarized in the Flowsheet worksheet.
