12、eum coke is stronglydependent upon average particle size and particle size range.Bulk density tends to increase with decreasing coke size.Anarrow particle size range for this test minimizes the possibilityfor variation due to skewing of the test sample toward eitherscreen defining the sample.)6.Appa
