Angle of repose of iron ore?

The angle of repose of iron ore can vary depending on factors such as particle size, shape, and moisture content. In general, the angle of repose for iron ore is typically around 35-45 degrees.


What is the angle of repose and what determines the angles shape size density and moisture?

The angle of repose is the maximum angle at which a granular material can be piled without slumping. The shape, size, density, and moisture content of the material all influence the angle of repose. Factors such as interparticle friction, cohesion, and particle shape affect the angle at which the material will naturally settle.


What is the effect of particle size on angle of repose?

As Particle size increases the angle is repose decrease. Reason being, smaller particles have dominant cohesive and adhesive forces as compared to particle weight whereas in bigger particles gravity plays a dominant role so less repose angle.


How does the density of a material affect its size of repose?

The density of a material can influence its size of repose by affecting how closely packed the particles are. Higher density materials tend to have smaller size of repose because their particles can fit more tightly together, leading to a steeper angle of repose. Conversely, lower density materials have a larger size of repose due to their looser particle arrangement, resulting in a shallower angle of repose.


How is the angle of repose related to mass movement?

Movement of a material will occur if the angle of repose is increased by the addition of material, or if friction is decreased by oversaturation of the material, or in the event of a ground moving event.
