English term or phrase: reporting to
It relates to a formula about the throughput of a cyclone machine. I can't come up with a proper expression to translate "reporting to" in this context:

Eo(d) percentage of feed material of size d reporting to overflow

Spanish translation:presentándose en el
Explanation:
presentándose en el rebosadero

Aunque sería una “personificación” o “prosopopeya”, el único sentido que le veo es que “se presentan”... es decir “el material del tamaño x” acaba “presentándose al” (yendo al) “overflow”... que sería “el rebosadero”.

Parece que las partículas de tamaño X acaban llegando (presentándose) a la zona de rebose... al “rebosadero” o al flujo de rebose...

Suerte.

Within limits, an increase in operating pressure will cause the cut point to drop (finer overflow).
This is because the centrifugal force on the particles is increased, forcing more fine particles to
the cyclone wall and hence **reporting to** the underflow. However, too great a pressure increase
may exceed the operating capacity of the cyclones, causing coarse particles **to report** to the
overflow.

Feed Size Distribution
The cyclone feed size distribution will affect the cyclone cut size and mass flows. A fine feed size
distribution will result in a fine product size with the majority of the feed **reporting to** the
overflow. A coarse feed size distribution will result in a coarse product size with the majority of
the feed **reporting to** the underflow.


For a particle to “sink” to the wall of the cyclone and **report to** underflow it must ‘fight’ its way
through all the other particles in the slurry. This gives rise to the concept of ‘hindered settling’,
which stems from the fact that a particle will sink faster in a glass of clear water than it will in a
glass of slurry at 50% solids because there is nothing to stop (or hinder) its fall in a glass of water.

A fine ‘overflow’ stream which **reports to** the leach/adsorption tanks.

Therefore, at a given operating pressure, an increase in the diameter of the vortex finder will
result in a coarser cut point as more feed material ** reports to ** the overflow. Hence it is important
that the vortex finder diameters are monitored regularly and replaced if excessively worn.
