National Technical Reports Library

The National Technical Information Service acquires, indexes, abstracts, and archives the largest collection of U.S. government-sponsored technical reports in existence. The NTRL offers online, free and open access to these authenticated government technical reports. Technical reports and documents in its repository may be available online for free either from the issuing federal agency, the U.S. Government Publishing Office’s Federal Digital System website, or through search engines.

Simulation Model for Predicting the Performance of Vibrating Screens.

PB83238386

Publication Date	1982
Personal Author	Hennings, K.; Grant, D.
Page Count	119
Abstract	Screening efficiency models developed to date rely almost exclusively on empirical formulas based upon large amounts of acquired operating data. A screening model was developed using a combination of empirical coefficients and explicit mathematical expressions that quantify screening phenomena. A series of screening tests was run to supply data for purposes of correlation and empirical coefficient evaluation. The model was implemented as a digital computer program. The validity of the modeling procedure was established by laboratory testing. The results were used to compile an applications handbook that can be used to predict screening performance instead of using the computer program.
