How to Size a Cyclone | Hydrocyclone

Hydrocyclone

How to Size a Cyclone or Hydrocyclone has a well establish step-by-step process for which Richard A. Arterburn was a pioneer.  Since this paper and its hydrocyclone sizing method is becoming hard to find, I uploaded it on here. Use the 911Metallurgist Online Cyclone Design Calculator. https://www.911metallurgist.com/hydrocyclone-design-equations-and-sizing-parameters-calculations I also include an Excel file prepared by Alex […]

Slurry Stream Sample Cutter Dimensions for Grinding Circuit Survey

slurry sampler

A good grinding circuit survey (and flotation circuit sampling) is only as good as the sample cutter used for each slurry stream.  Correct sampler volume and opening size insures your sample is representative of the concentrator stream you are testing.  Here is a good suggested design with opening dimensions.  You need to add the handle […]
