Simulating Explosive Effect on Gas-Dynamic State of Outburst-Hazardous Coal Band

详细

The preparation mechanism for gas-dynamic fracture of outburst-hazardous coal band during an explosive effect on a coal seam is considered. The conditions for crack formation in the zone farthest from the blasthole are studied, as well as simulation of induced cracks filling with methane, which was initially in coal in a dissolved state, and estimation of the start time for crack development due to the pressure of free methane. It is found that, depending on the mechanical and diffusion parameters of coal, the start time for crack development can vary from tens of seconds to many hours. The study results can be useful in developing a theory of explosive effect on a coal seam in a set of measures to reduce the risk of sudden outbursts of coal and gas.
