Representation of results of particle size analysis - Part 2 : calculation of average particle sizes/diameters and moments from particle size distributions

ISO 9276-2:2014 provides relevant equations and coherent nomenclatures for the calculation of moments, mean particle sizes and standard deviations from a given particle size distribution. Two notation systems in common use are described. One is the method of moments while the second describes the moment-ratio method. The size distribution may be available as a histogram or as an analytical function. The equivalent diameter of a particle of any shape is taken as the size of that particle. Particle shape factors are not taken into account. Samples of particles measured are intended to be representative of the population of particles. For both notation systems, numerical examples of the calculation of mean particle sizes and standard deviation from histogram data are presented in an annex.

<p> La présente partie de l'ISO 9276 a pour objet de fournir des équations appropriées au calcul des tailles moyennes ou des diamètres moyens de particules à partir d'une distribution granulométrique donnée. Elle part de l'hypothèse que la distribution granulométrique est disponible sous forme d'histogramme. Il est néanmoins également possible d'appliquer le même traitement mathématique si la distribution granulométrique est représentée par une fonction analytique. Il est de plus supposé, dans la présente partie de l'ISO 9276, que la taille x d'une particule est décrite par le diamètre d'une sphère. La taille, x, peut toutefois représenter également le diamètre équivalent d'une particule de n'importe quelle autre forme selon le problème rencontré. </p>

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
