XRT separation equipment is attracting much attention as the mining industry increasingly uses pre-sorting technology. Its sorting accuracy is affected by differences in ore shape and particle size during operation. This paper, in which numerical simulations are conducted to investigate the resistance of ores under various situations, including varying blowing distances, cross-sections, and practical sizes, Additionally, this paper conducts validation tests. The test results indicate that within the 0.1-0.25 m section from the nozzle exit, there is a rapid decrease in velocity, accompanied by a significant change in ore resistance. Beyond the 0.25 m mark, the velocity reduction slows down, while the ore resistance becomes smaller. There exists a notable disparity in the resistance of ores with varying cross-sectional geometries. The size of the jet velocity surface caused by blowing distance significantly influences the resistance of ore with varying particle sizes. Furthermore, the resistance of the ore remains constant subsequent to the impact surface of the ore surpassing the surface of the jet velocity. Consequently, appropriately modifying the blowing distance, inlet pressure, and jet speed in accordance with the cross-sectional area and particle size of the majority of the ores stream can enhance the precision of the sorting process.
