Hello!

Calculating the gradation curve of an assembly consisting of clumps involves determining the distribution of particle sizes within the clumps and then analyzing the overall particle size distribution. Here are some steps you can follow:
Break down the clumps: Start by breaking down the clumps into individual particles. This can be done manually or using sieving techniques, depending on the size and nature of the clumps.

Obtain particle size data: Measure the size of each individual particle
using appropriate techniques such as sieve analysis, laser diffraction,
or sedimentation. This will give you a dataset of particle sizes.

Determine the frequency distribution: Organize the particle size data
into a frequency distribution table or graph, showing the number or
percentage of particles falling within specific size ranges.

Calculate cumulative distribution: Calculate the cumulative distribution
by summing up the frequencies or percentages for each size range. This
will give you the cumulative percentage of particles smaller than or
equal to a particular size.

Plot the gradation curve: Plot the cumulative distribution on a graph, with the particle size on the x-axis (typically on a logarithmic scale) and the cumulative percentage on the y-axis. This curve represents the gradation of the assembly.
It's worth noting that the accuracy and precision of the gradation curve depend on the sample size and the representativeness of the particles obtained from the clumps. Consider using a representative sample and conducting multiple tests for more reliable results. https://apkbgmi.com/

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
