Analysis of Particle Motion in Vertical Shaft Impact Crusher Rotor

The rotor of vertical shaft impact crusher was modeled by SolidWorks and imported into EDEM for dynamic simulation. The average speed, maximum speed, average force, maximum force with time were analyzed in rotor, so the true law of particles motion in rotor would be revealed, indicated that the speed of particle field in rotor increased with the rotor radius at the time of rotor work steady, about 80% of the particles were accelerated to the maximum speed, and the change of speed affected significantly the particle interactions.
