General gamma representation for product particle split in gravity concentrators
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper attempts the well-known regularized gamma distribution function to represent the separation efficiency of particle segregation in gravity concentrators. The model has four parameters that are evaluated by a least square fit between the model estimate and the measured data. The model takes into account the bivariate effects of particle size and particle density to define the size-density separation efficiency, typically recognized as the partition surface. The model derivation is rooted in the observed pivot phenomenon associated with size-based partition curves of the separators. Although, the mathematical representation is empirical in nature, it is generic and is applicable to various gravity units notwithstanding differences in equipment design and particle flow profiles in the gravity units. The suitability of the representation is examined using several sets of measured data from literature. Convenient functional forms for computing the size dependent separation indices namely cut density and Ecart probable using the model parameters have been proposed. © 2005 SDU. All rights reserved.

($phi,rho$)-Representation of $Gamma$-So-Rings
A $Gamma$-so-ring is a structure possessing a natural partial ordering, an infinitary partial addition and a ternary multiplication, subject to a set of axioms. The partial functions under disjoint-domain sums and functional composition is a $Gamma$-so-ring. In this paper we introduce the notions of subdirect product and $(phi,rho)$-product of $Gamma$-so-rings and study $(phi,rho)$-represen...

متن کاملParticle Collection and Concentration for Cyclone Concentrators
Four cyclone concentrators were designed and fabricated to compare their particle separation and concentration behavior, such as the major, minor, outlet, and wall deposition fractions. Two of the cyclone concentrators were the conventional type, with the minor flow tube connected to the particle outlet at the bottom of the cyclone. The others were modified cyclone concentrators with a gap betw...

The possibility of bringing quantum gravity induced effects to the observational realm has sparkled a lot of attention recently. It is expected that the observation of high energy cosmological particles, such as photons [1] and neutrinos [2] arising from gamma ray bursts, will provide the appropriate arena to test such predictions. Also, very precise experiments already performed in atomic and ...
