About the Ballbal_Direct Spreadsheet ...

Scope :

The Ballbal_Direct spreadsheet was designed to compute the Size-by-Size Mass Balance around the Hydrocyclone
Classifiers of any given Conventional Ball Mill circuit, operating under the Direct configuration (see Flowsheet), on the
basis of actual plant measurements.

Theoretical Framework :

Whenever actual grinding data are collected in a plant environment, they will invariably be affected by natural experimental
and measurement errors, in such a way that the basic mass balance equation around the hydrocyclones, for particles of
size di :

fiCF CF = fiU U + fiO O ??? , for i = 1,n

will never be satisfied. In the above expression CF, U and O represent the mass flowrate of solids in the cyclones feed,
underflow and overflow streams, respectively. Similarly, fiCF, fiU and fiO represent the fraction of those total respective
streams corresponding to particles of size di.

The Ballbal_Direct routine allows for the calculation of a whole new set of corresponding adjusted or fitted values fiCF, fiU
and fiO, such that the objective functions :

f i = [ wCF (fiCF - fiCF)2 + wU (fiU - fiU)2 + wO(fiO - fiO)2 ] ,for every particle size di

are minimized and the adjusted values so generated strictly satisfy the mass balance restrictions :

fiCF CF = fiU U + fiO O , for i = 1,n

where wCF, wU and wO are user defined weighting factors included to represent the relative quality and reliability of the
samples from each of the 3 streams and the mass flowrates CF, U and O are calculated as :

CF = F (1 + CL)
U = F (CL)
O = F

where F is the dry Fresh Feedrate of solids to the grinding section and the Circulating Load (CL) is estimated by :

CL = { usd S [(fiO - fiCF) / (fiCF - fiU)] + ufs (1/fSO - 1/fSCF) / (1/fSCF -1/fSU) } / (usd + ufs)
all i

where fsCF, fsU and fsO are the weight fractions of total solids in the cyclones feed, underflow and overflow streams,
respectively, and also usd and ufs are user defined weighting factors included to represent the relative quality and reliability
of the size distribution measurements vs. the percent solids measurements in all 3 streams. In general, a high relative
value of a weighting factor is indicative of a more reliable measurement with respect to the other measurements
participating in the same equations. A statistically sound weighting factor may be calculated as 100/(% error) 2;

where (% error) corresponds to the combined sampling and measuring error percentage.

The least-square minimization problem stated above may be linearized and solved through the Lagrange Multipliers
Method (see About ... in Cyclobal_Single).

Further refinement of the adjusted values so computed is achieved by imposing the condition that these values must
conform to the Plitt's Classification Efficiency curve : (see About ... in Cyclosim_Single)

Ei = Bpf + (1 - Bpf ) (1 - exp [ - 0.693 (di/d50c)m ])

with the aid of the Excel Subroutine Solver to minimize a least-square objective function with respect to parameters B pf,
d50c and m.

Finally, the size distributions for the remaining streams of the circuit (fresh feed, mill feed and mill discharge) are calculated
on the basis of the adjusted values so obtained.

Data Input and Program Execution :

Most of the data required by the model 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.

The remaining information required to run the program is entered in the Control_Panel worksheet, where the user is
requested to provide initial guesses of the Bpf, d50c and m parameters (see About ... in Cyclosim_Single). The Bpc
parameter is rarely used and was incorporated to take into account the possible short-circuit of coarse particles to the
overflow (as could be the case in highly pressurised cyclones). Finally, the user must specify the relative weighting factors
for the various feed, underflow and overflow streams plus the relative weighting factors for the size distribution and percent
solids measurements.

To run the program, select the objective function Cell E22 in Control_Panel and then, from the Tools Menu, select Solver
..., then Min and then By Changing any combination of Cells C20:F20. Clicking on the Solve button will execute the
desired calculations.
Important Notice : Solver ... must be run every time any element of input data gets to be modified. Otherwise, the
current outputs are not valid.

Calculation results are summarized in the Reports worksheet.

An interesting feature of this routine is that the user has the option to save for later reference every analyzed data set by
copying the Data_File worksheet into as many as required Sample 1, Sample 2, etc. worksheets. For reprocessing these
data, simply copy the information back to the Data_File and re-run the Solver routine.

New Moly-Cop Tools users are invited to explore the brief comments inserted in each relevant cell, rendering the whole
utilization of the worksheets self-explanatory. Eventually, the user may wish to remove the view of the comments by
selecting Tools / Options / View / Comments / None.
