颗粒粒径对采空区破碎煤体压实破碎特征影响机制

煤矿采空区垮落带一般由破碎煤岩体组成,在垮落带压实过程中,破碎煤岩体的破碎特征直接影响着垮落带的物理力学性质及孔隙渗流特征。为了研究不同粒径破碎煤样压实过程中的破碎特征及其影响机制,构建了基于曲率半径与接触应力的颗粒材料屈服准则,进行了不同粒径破碎煤样的实验室压实试验与三维数值模拟研究。颗粒破碎准则表明影响颗粒破碎的主要参数为接触颗粒尺寸和接触颗粒的材料参数。得出垮落带相同压实应力条件下,破碎煤岩体尺寸越大,破碎煤岩体之间的接触应力越小。在实验颗粒粒径范围内,加载至相同应力状态下,颗粒粒径越大越不容易破碎,根据加载前后的级配数计算获得的破碎率越小。进而提出颗粒配位数(颗粒接触数)是加载过程中粒径对破碎率影响的主要原因。拥有较少配位数的小颗粒在传递相同应力的时候具有更大的偏应力进而导致相对于多配位数颗粒更容易破碎。加载过程中的量化模拟结果表明在初始粒径颗粒全部破碎时,3种粒径颗粒(10,15以及20 mm)中数量大于100子颗粒的占比分别为6.7%,24.6%,31.5%。随着破碎煤样的加载,不同粒径煤样最大颗粒对应的配位数不断增加,使得破碎煤样能够承受的应力远超过其自身强度。在颗粒配位数达到一定程度时,破碎煤样基本不再破碎,颗粒配位数基本保持不变。综合理论分析、实验室测试与数值模拟结果最终得出破碎煤样颗粒尺寸对破碎特征影响的主要决定因素是接触应力与配位数。在加载初期,破碎煤样配位数相差较小,破碎煤样尺寸越大,模型相同加载应力状态下的颗粒接触应力越小。在加载后期,大颗粒粒径的配位数要大于小粒径颗粒,使其更不容易破碎。

基于渗流实验的三轴流固耦合离散元数值模拟研究

卸压开采覆岩的应力场、裂隙场及渗流场耦合特性直接影响卸压瓦斯的运移特征。本文根据弹性煤样及贯穿裂隙煤样的应力渗流实验数据,结合渗流立方定律提出了数值模型中裂隙煤岩体流固耦合参数的选取方法,建立了三轴加载流固耦合数值模型。在此基础上模拟分析了单轴及三轴加载过程中煤样应力、裂隙及渗流的耦合特性。模拟结果表明:煤样渗透率随着轴向应变的升高呈S形变化,在煤样内部裂隙产生前随着轴压的增加而逐渐减小;煤样内部裂隙的产生及扩张使得渗透率开始升高,且裂隙扩张速度越快渗透率升高幅度越大;围压的升高使得煤样内部裂隙产生及扩展速度减缓,致使渗透率降低阶段延长,煤样初始渗透率及屈服后的渗透率逐渐减小。

深部厚硬顶板下充填面留巷大变形分析及控制

为控制深部充填开采的沿空留巷大变形,以山东某采选充一体化矿井充填工作面留巷为工程背景。综合运用理论分析、数值模拟和现场实测的方法,分析了沿空留巷大变形的影响因素,建立了厚硬顶板下充填开采沿空留巷结构力学模型,结合等价采高原理得出了厚硬顶板充填面充实率与留巷顶板下沉量之间的关系,并据此提出了留巷大变形的控制对策:优先加强留巷侧采空区充填;提高矸石墙强度;优化矸石墙支护参数。采用FLAC^(3D)软件计算分析了在不同的采空区充实率、留巷侧加强充填段长度、矸石墙强度、矸石墙支护让压距离下的巷道变形控制效果。选取不同工程条件下的留巷区域进行巷道位移观测,实测结果表明,在充实率较高的留巷区域,采取合理的让压支护方式可有效控制留巷围岩大变形。研究结果表明,充实率较高的情况下,厚硬顶板整体向采空区侧发生回转,实测顶板下沉量与所建留巷结构力学模型计算结果较为吻合;充实率是影响留巷大变形的主要因素,随着采空区充实率增大,采场的矿压显现强度明显弱化,留巷顶板的下沉量明显减小;采取适当的留巷侧加强充填措施,可在充填矸石量不足的情况下,有效控制留巷顶板下沉;提高矸石墙强度、选择合理的矸石墙支护让压参数可以有效控制矸石墙的侧向大变形。尚需开发高强度、低成本、易施工的混凝土材料作为巷旁支护体,研究工作面单侧加强充填的矸石物流、工作面设备配套问题。

Hydraulic support crushed mechanism for the shallow seam mining face under the roadway pillars of room mining goaf

While the fully-mechanized longwall mining technology was employed in a shallow seam under a room mining goaf and overlained by thin bedrock and thick loose sands, the roadway pillars in the abandoned room mining goaf were in a stress-concentrated state, which may cause abnormal roof weighting, violent ground pressure behaviours, even roof fall and hydraulic support crushed(HSC) accidents. In this case,longwall mining safety and efficiency were seriously challenged. Based on the HSC accidents occurred during the longwall mining of 3-1-2 seam, which locates under the intersection zone of roadway pillars in the room mining goaf of 3-1-1 seam, this paper employed ground rock mechanics to analyse the overlying strata structure movement rules and presented the main influence factors and determination methods for the hydraulic support working resistance. The FLAC3 D software was used to simulate the overlying strata stress and plastic zone distribution characteristics. Field observation was implemented to contrastively analyse the hydraulic support working resistance distribution rules under the roadway pillars in strike direction, normal room mining goaf, roadway pillars in dip direction and intersection zone of roadway pillars. The results indicate that the key strata break along with rotations and reactions of the coal pillars deliver a larger concentrated load to the hydraulic support under intersection zone of roadway pillars than other conditions. The ‘‘overburden strata-key strata-roadway pillars-immediate roof" integrated load has exceeded the yield load that leads to HSC accidents. Findings in HSC mechanism provide a reasonable basis for shallow seam mining, and have important significance for the implementation of safe and efficient mining.

System dynamics model of the support-surrounding rock system in fully mechanized mining with large mining height face and its application

Fully mechanized mining with large mining height(FMMLMH)is widely used in thick coal seam mining face for its higher recovery ratio,especially where the thickness is less than 7.0 m.However,because of the great mining height and intense rock pressure,the coal wall rib spalling,roof falling and the instability of support occur more likely in FMMLMH working face,and the above three types of disasters interact with each other with complicated relationships.In order to get the relationship between each two of coal wall,roof,floor and support,and reduce the occurrence probability of the three types of disasters,we established the system dynamics(SD)model of the support-surrounding rock system which is composed of"coal wall-roof-floor-support"(CW-R-F-S)in a FMMLMH working face based on the condition of No.15104 working face in Sijiazhuang coal mine.With the software of Vensim,we also simulated the interaction process between each two factors of roof,floor,coal wall and the support.The results show that the SD model of"CW-R-F-S"system can reveal the complicated and interactive relationship clearly between the support and surrounding rock in the FMMLMH working face.By increasing the advancing speed of working face,the support resistance or the length of support guard,or by decreasing the tipto-face distance,the stability of"CW-R-F-S"system will be higher and the happening probability of the disasters such as coal wall rib spalling,roof falling or the instability of support will be lower.These research findings have been testified in field application in No.15104 working face,which can provide a new approach for researching the interaction relationship of support and surrounding rock.

Rules of distribution in a plastic zone of rocks surrounding a roadway affected by tectonic stress

In order to study the rules of distribution in a plastic zone of rocks, surrounding a roadway, affected by tectonic stress, we first analyzed the mechanics of a roadway affected by tectonic stress and derived a theoretical formula for the plastic zone of rocks surrounding a roadway. We also analyzed the distribution characteristics of the plastic zone under different levels of tectonic stress, vertical pressure, cohesion and friction angle of the surrounding rock. Secondly, we used numerical simulation to analyze the range and shape features of the plastic zone of rocks surrounding the roadway, given different tectonic stress levels. Finally we used a rock drilling detector to carry out field measurements on the broken state of rock surrounding the roadway at the –700 substation and channels in the Xinzhuang mine of the Shenhuo mining area. Given the measured ground stress, we analyzed the relationship between tectonic stress and the distribution of this plastic zone. Our results show that the range of the plastic zone at the top and bottom of the roadway increases with an increase in tectonic stress and this increase is especially obvious at the roadway corner.

Mechanics of rib spalling of high coal walls under fully-mechanized mining

In order to solve the problem of rib spalling of high coal walls in fully-mechanized（HCWFM）mines,we used the principle of damage mechanics to analyze coal wall rib spalling.The results show that coal wall rib spalling is,to a certain degree,a macro-performance of the development of micro-cracks.We built a mechanical model to simulate the damage to the front of coal walls,carried out theoretical calculations of the damage parameters,analyzed the effect of mining height,original cracks,seam strength,horizontal stress,vertical displacement of the coal walls and other parameters on coal wall rib spalling, which conform well with the results of our field measurements and numerical simulation.The key to control coal wall rib spalling is to control the development of cracks in coal walls.Accelerating the speed of advancing the working face,improving the setting load of support and the horizontal force of the guard board,strengthening coal walls and other technical measures can effectively reduce the degree of damage to the coal walls and control coal wall rib spalling at HCWFM faces.

Theoretical analysis on the deformation characteristics of coal wall in a longwall top coal caving face

Against the background of analyzing coal wall stability in 14101 fully mechanized longwall top coal caving face in Majialiang coal mine,based on the torque equilibrium of the coal wall,shield support and the roof strata,an elastic mechanics model was established to calculate the stress applied on the coal wall.The displacement method was used to obtain the stress and deformation distributions of the coal wall.This study also researched the influence of support resistance,protective pressure to the coal wall,fracture position of the main roof and mining height on the coal wall deformation.The following conclusions are drawn:(1) The shorter the distance from the longwall face,the greater the vertical compressive stress and horizontal tensile stress borne by the coal wall.The coal wall is prone to failure in the form of compressive-shear and tension;(2) With increasing support resistance,the revolution angle of the main roof decreases linearly.As the support resistance and protective force supplied by the face guard increases,the maximum deformation of the coal wall decreases linearly;(3) As the face approaches the fracture position of the main roof,coal wall horizontal deformation increases significantly,and the coal wall is prone to instability;and(4) The best mining height of 14101 longwall face is 3.0 m.

Auxiliary transportation mode in a fully-mechanized face in a nearly horizontal thin coal seam

On fully-mechanized faces in nearly horizontal thin coal seams （NHTCS）, the selection of the auxiliary transportation mode is difficult. Generally, auxiliary transportation mainly includes trackless or rail transportation. Combined with a familiar NHTCS fully-mechanized face, a multi-attribute decision- making model was set up for the decision. The index weight was objectively determined with the fuzzy number and entropy method. The priority order of auxiliary transportation modes was obtained from the Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluation （PROMETHEE）. The results show that： the net flow of the mode can be expressed by the function of the surrounding rock deformation of the roadway, the dimension of equipment and the thickness of the coal seam; Based on the cost type index, there is a positive correlation between the net flow with the height and width of the trackless auxiliary transportation equipment, respectively. The trackless auxiliary transportation equipment selection principle should be ＂height first then width＂. Combined with the field application of the trackless auxil- iary transportation in Liangshuijing coal mine, the proper method to achieve the safe and high-efficient exploitation of a NHTCS fully-mechanized face is trackless tvred vehicle auxiliary transportation.

Technology of back stoping from level floors in gateway and pillar mining areas of extra-thick seams

According to the special requirements of secondary mining of resources in gateway-and-pillar goal in extra-thick seams of Shanxi, this paper presents a technical proposal of back stoping from level floors. Numerical simulation and theoretical analysis are ccsed to investigate the compaction characteristics of cavities under stress as well as an appropriate mining height of the primary-mining layer based on dif- ferent mining widths and pillar widths. For Yangjian coal mine, the mining thickness of the first seam during back stoping from level floor is determined to be 3 m, which meets the relevant requirements. Gateway-and-pillar goaf of a single layer has a range of influence of 9 m vertically. If gateway-and-pillar goaf occurs both in 9-1 and 9-5 layers, the range is extended to within 11.2 m. When the mining width of a gateway is less than 2 m or larger than 5 m, the gateway-and-pillar goal in the upper layer of the primary-mining seam can be filled in and compacted after stoping. When the working face is 2 m away from the gateway and pillar before entering into it and after passing through it, the coal body under the gateway and pillar is subjected to relatively high stress. During mining of the upper layer, moreover, the working face should interlock the goaf in primary-mining layer for 20 m.
