保护层卸压开采煤层变形与增透效应研究

Study on Seam Deformation and Permeability Improved Effect of Pressure Released Mining in Protective Seam

为了研究高瓦斯赋存煤层卸压增透效应,以达到提高低渗透性松软煤层瓦斯抽采率,降低工作面瓦斯突出危险性,采用RFPA2D-Gasflow软件分析下保护层卸压开采后上覆煤岩采动裂隙发育、应力分布特征及由此产生的卸压煤层增透效应。结果表明:卸压开采煤层的透气性系数增大200倍左右,增透效果显著。利用该研究结果在顾桥矿沿空留巷内布置斜向上长短穿层钻孔,代替传统的底板巷内布置向上穿层钻孔抽采本层采空区内和上覆卸压煤层内瓦斯,可使沿空留巷中回风流和上隅角瓦斯体积分数均控制在0.5%以下,平均瓦斯抽采率达50%～70%,保证了工作面的安全回采。

In order to study the pressure released and permeability improved effect of the high gas content seam and to reach the targets to improve the gas drainage rate of the low permeability soft seam and to reduce the gas outburst danger of the coal mining face,the RFPA2D-Gasflow software was applied to analyze the mining crack development and the stress distribution features of the overburden coal and rock and thus created pressure released and permeability effect after the pressure released mining in the underneath protective seam.The results showed that the permeability coefficient of the pressure released mining seam could be increased about 200 times and the permeability improved effect was obvious.The study results were applied to the layout of the inclined upward long and short boreholes in the gateway retained along goaf in Guqiao Mine to replace the layout of the inclined upward borehole in the conventional floor gateway for the gas drainage in the mining goaf and the overburden pressure released seam.Thus the gas volume fractions of the air returning flow in the gateway retained and the gas in the upper corner both could be controlled below 0.5%,the average gas drainage rate could be 50%~70% and the safety mining of the coal mining face could be ensured.
