Chamber Mill Volume Loads and Power Drawn Calculation Existing Chamber Configuration Modify Mill Configuration

This document contains calculations for the volume loads and power drawn of an existing and modified chamber mill configuration. It analyzes the existing configuration of two chambers, then proposes modifications and recalculates the volume loads, media weights, power consumption, and power drawn per chamber for the modified configuration. The goal of the modifications is to achieve a target mill output of 135 tph while maintaining a power draw of around 38.5 kWh/t.
