Equation to calculate grinding mill ball size Grinding
d = 1.354 ( F80 )^0.5 [ρ Wi / ( Nc D ^0.5)]^⅓. where d is the make-up ball size in mm, F80 is feed size in m, ρ is ore density (specific gravity) in t/m , Wi is metric Bond work index for ball milling, N is mill rotation speed in rev/min; Nc is rotation speed as % of critical, and D is the mill diameter in US feet.
