CIRCULATING LOAD:

These calculations of the percent circulating load are based on two methods using the:

1) Percent solid or pulp densities around the cyclone (or Percent dilution = mass of water ÷ mass of solid × 100)

2) Percent passing a selected screen around the cyclone.


To use:

Enter the feed, overflow and underflow percent solids or percent dilution (method 1).

Enter the selected screen percent passing for the feed, overflow and underflow (method 2).

Click on "Calculate" to calculate the percent circulating load.

An example can be seen on this Youtube video.

Method 1: Using percent solid (or percent dilution):

Cyclone feed:		percent solid (%) percent dilution (%)
Cyclone overflow:
Cyclone underflow:

Method 2: Using percent passing for a selected screen:

Percent passing for cyclone feed (%):
Percent passing for cyclone underflow:
Percent passing for cyclone overflow:
