Considering the characteristics of turbulent flow field and the influence of process parameters on particle flocculation behavior, a particle flocculation kinetic mathematical model based on local turbulent energy dissipation rate and slurry viscosity correction was established using the CFD-PBM coupling method. On the basis of test verification of flow velocity and average particle size distribution of flocs, the influence of feed volume concentration on flocculation behavior in deep cone thickener was studied. The results show that the energy dissipation rate of turbulent flow above the annular baffle in the feedwell is about 2 orders of magnitude higher than that in the lower area, and the energy dissipation rate of turbulent flow below the baffle first increases and then decreases with the increase of feed volume concentration. The average particle size of flocs first increases and then decreases with the increase of feed volume concentration, and the average particle size of flocs is larger under the condition of medium feed volume concentration (10%). Appropriately increasing the length of the feedwell can improve the flocculation effect of fine mineral particles. The research results can provide guidance for modeling turbulent flocculation kinetics and optimizing flocculation thickening process parameters.
