    The document discusses calculating the required speed for a ball mill if the ball size is changed from 100mm to 50mm diameter balls. It states that the critical speed of the mill depends on the radius of the mill and balls. It then calculates that with a 50mm ball, the critical speed is 30.7rpm. As the original mill operated at 15rpm which was 48.86% of critical speed, the new required speed to maintain the same percentage of critical speed would be 14.8rpm.

    In a ball mill of diameter 2000 mm, 100 mm dia steel balls are being used for grinding.

    Presently, for the material being ground, the mill is run at 15 rpm. At what speed will the mill
    have to be run if the 100 mm balls are replaced by 50 mm balls, all the other conditions
    remaining the same?

    Calculations:
    The critical speed of ball mill is given by,

    where R = radius of ball mill; r = radius of ball.


    For R = 1000 mm and r = 50 mm,
    nc = 30.7 rpm
    But the mill is operated at a speed of 15 rpm. Therefore, the mill is operated at 100 x 15/30.7 =
    48.86 % of critical speed.
    If 100 mm dia balls are replaced by 50 mm dia balls, and the other conditions are remaining the
    same,
    Speed of ball mill = [0.4886/(2 x [9.812/(1 - 0.025)]0.5
    = 14.8 rpm
