Abstract (EN): This work presents simulation results for the behaviour of different particles in a new magnetic-classifier (MAGCLA (TM)), which is capable of separating and classifying particles according to their magnetic susceptibilities. In a previous article the results for a blank simulation were reported. In this paper the blank simulation is compared with the results obtained for the variation of two of the main processing variables: friction coefficient, mu, and the radius of the particles, r(part), in the outcome results.
