Quantitative modeling techniques and methods are central to the study and development of process engineering ,including mineral processing .models in mineral processing have been difficult to develop because of the complexity of the unit oprations that are used in virtually all mineral recovery systems .
The author covers the field of quantitative modeling of mineral process equipment and uses models to simulate the actual behavior of are dressing and coal washing equipment in industrial practice .many examples are included to explain the application of some of the commonly used models ,most of wich described in the book are included in the modsim software ,the plat-wide simulator that is included on the companion CD.
The simulator is sn important part of the book.almost all of the models described are not amenable to normal mathematical solutions or easy compulation using calculators or spreadsheets .the simulation tecniques done with modsim allow complex problems to be tackled with minimal time and expense .
In many instances ,model structure is related to the underying physical processes that govern the behavior of particulate material in the processing equipment predictive models are emphasized throughout and,when combined ,can be used to simulate the oprations of complex mineral processing flowsheets .
The material is presented in an instructional style that help the reader learn the wide variaety of modeling methods that have evolved in this field .each chapter of the book includes a historical perspective that provides an enlightening perspective for researchers starting new topics in the area.
