Energy Consumption in Jaw Crushing

The document discusses energy requirements for crushing materials of different initial and final sizes according to different crushing laws: - Rittinger's law and Kick's law make predictions for crushing material from 75mm to 25mm, given energy used to crush from 50mm to 10mm was 13.0 kW/(kg/s). - Crushing limestone from 6mm to 0.1mm requires 9kW; crushing dolomite of higher strength from 6mm to 0.085mm requires estimated power assuming Rittinger's law. - Bond's law is used to estimate power needed to crush material from 7.5mm cubes to 0.2mm cubes, given 3kW was needed to crush

  • Exercise - Material Crushing: Presents problems on calculating energy requirements for particle size reduction using Rittinger's and Kick's laws, provided in both English and Spanish.

2.1.

A material is crushed in a Blake jaw crusher such that the average size of particle is reduced
from 50 mm to 10 mm, with the consumption of energy of 13.0 kW/(kg/s). What will be the
consumption of energy needed to crush the same material of average size 75 mm to average size
of 25 mm:
(a) Assuming Rittinger’s Law applies,
(b) assuming Kick’s Law applies?
Which of these results would be regarded as being more reliable and why?

2.1. Un material se tritura en una trituradora de mandíbulas Blake de modo que el

tamaño promedio de partícula se reduce de 50 mm a 10 mm, con un consumo de energía

de 13.0 kW / (kg / s). ¿Cuál será el consumo de energía necesario para triturar el mismo

material de tamaño medio 75 mm a tamaño medio de 25 mm:

(a) Suponiendo que se aplique la Ley de Rittinger,

(b) suponiendo que se aplique la Ley de Kick?

¿Cuál de estos resultados se consideraría más confiable y por qué?

2.2 A crusher reducing limestone of crushing strength 70 MN/m2 from 6 mm diameter average
size to 0.1 mm diameter average size, requires 9 kW. The same machine is used to crush
dolomite at the same output from 6 mm diameter average size to a product consisting of 0.085
mm. Estimate the power required, assuming that the crushing strength of the dolomite is 100
MN/m2 and that crushing follows Rittinger’s Law.
Apply the next relation, where fc is the crushing strength for tow reductions.

2.3 Power of 3 kW is supplied to a machine crushing material at the rate of 0.3 kg/s from 12.5
mm cubes to a product having the following size: 2.25 mm. What power should be supplied to
this machine to crush 0.3 kg/s of the same material from 7.5 mm cube to 0.2 mm cube?.
a) Assuming Bond´s Law applies,

2.3 Se suministra una potencia de 3 kW a un material de trituración de máquina a razón

de 0.3 kg / s de cubos de 12.5 mm a un producto que tiene el siguiente tamaño: 2.25

mm. ¿Qué potencia se debe suministrar a esta máquina para triturar 0.3 kg / s del mismo

material desde un cubo de 7.5 mm a un cubo de 0.2 mm?

a) Suponiendo que se aplique la Ley de Bonos,
