If no feedingtime adjustment was necessary and if the discharge time falls within 135 and 165 s, proceed to 11.7. Otherwise, repeat 11.6 untilthe ti

OTHER SIEVE FRACTIONS USED IN THE ALUMINUM INDUSTRY TO DETERMINED VIBRATED BULK DENSITYA1.1 From a 2 kg as-received sample, split the test sample with a riffle sampler to a subsample of 350 6 50 g.A1.2 Sieve the subsample to collect the as-received particle frac

44、tion to be measured in accordance with Table A1.1. Discard theundersized particle fraction.A1.3 Taking care to avoid overcrushing, crush the oversized fraction of the subsample in a jaw crusher (of the laboratory type,having manganese steel jaws capable of being set to gaps of approximately 3 to 15

45、mm) or roll crusher, and place the materialbetween the appropriate two sieves with a pan on the bottom and a lid on the top. Gently agitate the sieves by hand but vigorouslyenough to collect the crushed particle fraction to be measured and discard the undersized material. Repeat until at least 90 %

46、(andpreferably more) of the subsample passes through the upper size sieve for the particle fraction to be measured.A1.4 Mix the as-received and crushed particle fractions. A minimum of 110 g of sieved, crushed and mixed particles are requiredfor the VBD test. The mixed sample is sieved for 10 min 10

47、 min in a sieve shaker. Discard undersized material.A2. ADJUSTMENT OF THE PHOTOELECTRIC SENSOR HEIGHT AND GRADUATED CYLINDER CALIBRATIONA2.1 Ensure that the table is level, and turn the apparatus on.A2.2 Insert the cylinder into the clamping device of the VBD apparatus while ensuring it does not tou

48、ch the photoelectric sensor.A2.3 Fill the upper funnel with a typical coke sample.A2.4 Make sure the electromagnetic jogger is turned on, fill the cylinder approximately up to the 45-mL line using maximumfeeding rate, and stop the feeding.A2.5 Using the automatic mode, alternately start and stop the

49、 feeding whenever necessary to bring the coke level to the desiredposition (should be the 50-mL line of the cylinder).A2.6 Bring the photoelectric sensor very slightly above the desired position by sliding the bracket (the knob should be unscrewed)while holding the sensor (do not forget to screw the knob afterward).A2.7 Set the vibrating bowl control to OFF to avoid feeding. Reset the chronometer, press START to get the chronometer running,and adjust the photoelectric sensor height very slowly until it stops the chronometer.TABLE A1.1 Sieve Fra
