Analysis of Screen Effectiveness for Removing Undesired Fine Material in Powdered Coal
In this problem, powdered coal with a specified screen analysis is fed to a vibrating 48 mesh screen to remove undesired fine material. The oversize and undersize analysis for the screen were recorded when new and after 3 months of operation. The effectiveness of the old and new screens is to be calculated based on the given data.
