Bond Work Index (Energy equation)

BOND WORK INDEX. The Bond Work Index is a factor that measures the energy consumed in size reduction operation of the ore. The Bond's Work Index equation is: W=WI* (10/√P80 -10/√F80) where. W= the energy input (Work input) per ton, kwh/metric ton. WI= Work Index= specific energy per ton, kwh/metric ton (characterizes the ore)
