Regularities of minerals division on the frictional separator inclined plane
Under consideration are mathematical laws of behavior of particles on the inclined surface of friction separator. The laws have been derived in accordance with the general theorems of mechanical system dynamics and allow estimating velocities of particles of different shape. The derived laws can be the basis for the procedure of determination of separator design parameters based on the analysis of friction between pieces of rocks in order to elaborate specific recommendations on improvement of a stratification unit. The calculation results are confirmed by the data of the experimental research.
