Breakage behaviors and energy consumed characteristics of coal are directly influenced by properties, such as particle size, ash content or density. It is essential to model these effects and conduct quantitative evaluation. In this study, samples of 4 particle sizes × 4 ash contents were ground in a Hardgrove mill for 9 energy levels, respectively. Breakage rate of particles in the top size and t10 were determined and effects of coal properties on two parameters were also discussed. Though the relation between consumed energies and t10 of each sample can be described by classical breakage model, experimental data of all samples were scatter. In this case, particle size and ash content were modelled into breakage equation in exponential term, namely t10 = A × (1 − e−b∙x∙Ecs/eYa). This modified model gave good fitting results to experimental data. Introduce of coal properties into energy-size reduction model helps to compare grinding energy efficiency of various coals. Confidence analyses of repeat experiments demonstrated the repeatability of test results and indicated the reliability of new breakage model.
