The rated power of the mill motor is 2.2 kW and includes a variable speed DC controller unit that was used to adjust the mill speed to 41, 49, 56 and 64 rpm (55, 65, 75 and 85% of Nc). The voltage and amperage were measured during the tests by the DC controller and was used to calculate the power consumption.

It is generally accepted that practical mill power (PM ) is a function of mill capacity and diameter, i.e.,P M = Mill Constant * (Mill Diameter ) n where n = 0.3 to 0.5. It is evident that mill power is a function of the height at which the media is lifted and the density of the media, i.e., PM = K Ï b LD 2.5 where k is a proportionality constant.
