Critical speed of a ball mill depends on
- Athe radius of the mill (shell) and the radius of the particles
- Bthe radius of the mill (shell) and the density of the particles
- Cthe radius of the balls and the radius of the particles
- the radius of the balls and the radius of the mill (shell)
Explanation
Critical speed Nc=(1/2π)√(g/(R−r)), where R is the mill shell radius and r is the ball radius.
