About the BallBal_ReverseSpreadsheet ...
Scope :
The Ballbal_Reverse spreadsheet was designed to compute the Size-by-Size Mass Balance around the HydrocyclonClassifiers of any given Conventional Ball Mill circuit, operating under the Reverse configuration (see Flowsheet), onthe basis of actual plant measurements.
Theoretical Framework :
Whenever actual grinding data are collected in a plant environment, they will invariably be affected by naturalexperimental and measurement errors, in such a way that the basic mass balance equation around the circuit, for particleof size di :
fiF F + fi
MD MD = fiU U + fi
O O ??? , for i = 1,n
will never be satisfied. In the above expression F, MD, U and O represent the mass flowrate of solids in the circuit freshfeed, mill discharge, underflow and overflow streams, respectively. Similarly, fi
F, fiMD, fi
U and fiO represent the fraction of
those total respective streams corresponding to particles of size di.
The Ballbal_Reverse routine allows for the calculation of a whole new set of corresponding adjusted or fitted values fiF
,fi
MD, fiUand fi
O, such that the objective functions :
fi = [ wF (fiF - fiF)2 + wMD (fiMD - fiMD)2 + wU (fiU - fiU)2 + wO(fiO - fiO)2 ] ,for every particle size diare minimized and the adjusted values so generated strictly satisfy the mass balance restrictions :
fiFF+fi
MDMD = fiUU+fi
OO , for i = 1,n
where wF, wMD, wU and wO are user defined weighting factors included to represent the relative quality and reliability of thsamples from each of the 4 streams and the mass flowrates F, MD, Uand Oare calculated as :
F = F
MD= F (CL)U = F (CL)O = F
and the Circulating Load (CL) is estimated from :
CL = { usdS [(fiO - fiF) / (fiMD - fiU)] + ufs (1/fSO - 1/fSF) / (1/fSMD -1/fSU) } / (usd + ufs)all i
where fsF, fs
MD, fsU and fs
O are the weight fractions of total solids in the fresh feed, mill discharge, underflow and overflowstreams, respectively, and also usd and ufs are user defined weighting factors included to represent the relative quality anreliability of the size distribution measurements vs. the percent solids measurements in all 4 streams. In general, a highrelative value of a weighting factor is indicative of a more reliable measurement with respect to the other measurementsparticipating in the same equations.

A statistically sound weighting factor may be calculated as 100/(% error)2; where (% error) corresponds to the combinedsampling and measuring error percentage.
The least-square minimization problem stated above may be linearized and solved through the Lagrange MultipliersMethod (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 Bpd50
c and m.
Finally, the size distribution of the cyclone feed stream may be calculated on the basis of the adjusted values so obtainedfor the fresh feed and mill discharge streams.
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 resuof 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 isrequested to provide initial guesses of the Bpf, d50
c and m parameters (see About ... in Cyclosim_Single). The Bpcparameter is rarely used and was incorporated to take into account the possible short-circuit of coarse particles to theoverflow (as could be the case in highly pressurised cyclones). Finally, the user must specify the relative weighting factofor the various feed, underflow and overflow streams plus the relative weighting factors for the size distribution andpercent solids measurements.
To run the program, select the objective function Cell E22 in Control_Panel and then, from the Tools Menu, selectSolver ..., then Min and then By Changing any combination ofCells C20:F20. Clicking on the Solve button will executethe desired calculations.
Important Notice : Solver ... must be run every time any element of input data gets to be modified. Otherwise, thecurrent 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 bycopying the Data_File worksheet into as many as required Sample 1, Sample 2, etc. worksheets. For reprocessing thesdata, 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 wholeutilization of the worksheets self-explanatory. Eventually, the user may wish to remove the view of the comments byselecting Tools / Options / View / Comments / None.
