| Abstract: |
| Mineral processing processes mainly include transportation, fragmentation, mixing and separation of mineral particles or slurry fluids in plants. The interactions between mineral particles have dynamic characteristics and fluid correlation properties. The material movement structure involved in mineral processing processes can be analyzed theoretically by the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD), which will help engineers understand mineral processing processes better and promote mineral processing innovation. This paper expounds the value of CFD technology for mineral processing innovation from mineral processing equipment design, plant problem solving, process optimization and process control. |
