The Use of Simulation Software using the Discrete Element Method (DEM) for the Process of Materials Comminution

Comminution processes are one of the most common for processing energy materials, e.g. coal, biomass, and post-recycling elements. The hitherto unsolved problem is high consumption machines lack precise descriptions phenomenon comminution in terms relationship between design features mills properties comminuted materials. dynamic development simulation techniques based on advanced models method discrete elements allows a certain mapping occurring phenomena. purpose work to illustrate possibility using software element model grinding shredders assemblies. paper presents aspects modeling shape size particles, their interactions contacts with structural elements, as well crushing RockyDem software.
