LAGUIAB - Size Reduction Calculation

The document discusses methods for estimating the energy required to reduce particle sizes in materials based on their density, surface area, weight and mean diameters. It also addresses using Stokes' Law to predict the maximum diameter of cream droplets needed to reduce the separation time of milk to one week through homogenization.

1. From measurements on a uniformly sized material from a dryer, it is inferred that the surface
area of the material is 1200m2. If the density of the material is 1450kgm-3 and the total weight is
3. It is found that the energy required to reduce particles from a mean diameter of 1cm to 0.3cm
is 11 kJ kg-1. Estimate the energy requirement to reduce the same particles from a diameter of
0.1 cm to 0.01 cm assuming:

(a) Kick's Law,


(b) Rittinger's Law,
(c) Bond's Equation.
5. If it is desired to reduce the separation time for milk to at least one week (before cream will
rise to the top), what maximum diameter of cream droplet would Stokes' Law predict to be
necessary for the homogenization to achieve?
