循环应力损伤对煤体冲击倾向性影响研究

目前对煤岩体动力学行为特征的研究仅考虑了温度、围压等原始地质作用影响,并未考虑煤炭开采过程中产生的循环应力作用对煤体动力学特性的影响;且对煤体动力学显现特征的判定是以煤体冲击倾向性指标为基本依据,而循环应力损伤作用对煤体冲击倾向性及其动力学特性的影响尚未进行深入研究。针对上述问题,对煤样开展了循环应力损伤试验,分析了恒上下限及变上限2种循环应力损伤条件下的煤体冲击倾向性变化特征。试验结果表明:①煤体经恒上下限循环应力作用及变上限循环应力作用后静态抗压强度分别降低了13.86%与16.00%,循环应力会对煤体力学强度产生劣化。②原始煤体剩余弹性能指数为27.34kJ·m^(-3),表示该煤体具有弱冲击倾向性,经过恒上下限循环应力损伤及变上限循环应力损伤后煤体剩余弹性能指数分别降低了约26.30%及36.14%,表明循环应力对煤体的冲击倾向性有显著的弱化作用。③随着煤体剩余弹性能指数的降低,煤体动态抗压强度与动态弹性模量均减小,而动态破坏变形不断增大,表明煤体冲击倾向性将直接影响其动力学特征,煤体冲击倾向性越大,其冲击动力学相关参数劣化程度越高。④随着煤体剩余弹性能指数不断降低,冲击后煤体破碎分形维数降低,表明循环应力使得煤体受冲击后崩解不充分,动力学响应减弱。

Comparison between the new mechanistic and the chaos scale-up methods for gas-solid fluidized beds

The chaotic scale-up approach by matching the Kolmogorov entropy(E_K) proposed by Schouten et al.(1996) was assessed in two geometrically similar gas–solid fluidized bed columns of 0.14 and 0.44 m diameter.We used four conditions of our validated new mechanistic scale-up method based on matching the radial profiles of gas holdup where the local dimensionless hydrodynamic parameters were similar as measured by advanced measurement techniques.These experimental conditions were used to evaluate the validity of the chaotic scale-up method,which were selected based on our new mechanistic scale-up methodology.Pressure gauge transducer measurements at the wall and inside the bed at various local radial locations and at three axial heights were used to estimate KE.It was found that the experimental conditions with similar or close radial profiles of the Kolmogorov entropy and with similar or close radial profiles of the gas holdup achieve the similarity in local dimensionless hydrodynamic parameters,and vice versa.

Nonlinear multi body dynamic modeling and vibration analysis of a double drum coal shearer

The double drum coal shearer is widely applied for the underground coal exploration in the mining industry.The vibration and noise control are significant factors for the stability design of the double drum coal shearer.In this paper,the vibration properties of a double drum coal shearer are firstly investigated.The horizontal,transverse and torsional vibrations of the motor body and the angle displacements of the rockers are taken into account.The walking units and the hydraulic units are modeled by the stiffness-damping systems.The nonlinear equation of motion of the double drum coal shearer is established by applying the Lagrange’s equation.The nonlinear vibration response of the system is calculated by using the Runge Kutta numerical method.The effects of the shearing loads,the equivalent damping and stiffness of the walking units,the inclination angels of the rockers and the equivalent damping and stiffness of the hydraulic units on the vibration properties of the system are discussed.

Failure modes of coal containing gas and mechanism of gas outbursts

In order to explain the mechanism for gas outburst, the process of evolving fractures in coal seams is described using system dynamics with variable boundaries. We discuss the failure modes of coal containing gas and then established the flow rules after failure. The condition under which states of deformation convert is presented and the manner in which these convert is proposed. In the end, the process of gas outbursts is explained in detail. It shows that a gas outburst is a process in which the boundaries of coal seams are variable because of coal failure. If the fractures are not connected or even closed owing to coal/rock stress, fractured zones will retain a certain level of carrying capacity because of the self-sealing gas pressure. When the accumulation of gas energy reaches its limit, coal seams will become unstable and gas outbursts take place.

Effects of operating pressure on the key parameters of coal direct chemical looping combustion

Techno-economic development of chemical looping combustion （CLC） process has been one of the most pursued research areas of the present decade due to its ability to reduce carbon foot print during utilization of coal to generate energy. Based on a 2D computational fluid dynamics model, the present work provides a computational approach to study the effect of operating pressure--a key parameter in designing of CLC reactors, on optimum operating conditions. The effects of operating pressure have been examined in terms of reactors temperature, percentage of fuel conversion and purity of carbon dioxide in fuel reactor exhaust. The simulated results show qualitative agreement with the trends obtained by other investigators during experimental studies.

Effect of impulse and bedding on impact toughness of coal

In order to understand the properties of impact toughness of coal at different impact speeds,and the change of impact toughness of lump coal to joint directivity of lump coal,a series of impact tests were conducted on Beijing Da'anshan Lump Coal at different impact speeds and in different impact direction.Through analyzing the test result,it is shown that the change of testing samples is similar when impact is exerted on the vertical bedding and the parallel bedding when the impulse is less than 20 N.s,and the difference increases with the impulse increasing when the impulse is more than 20 N·s.At the same time,the expanding energy of fracture in samples increases with its expanding speed,and the expanding energy of fracture has close relation with the impact direction of the tested samples.And the difference of impact toughness of lump coal produced by different im- pact direction increase with the impact speed.The fracture surface of lump coal when im- pact is exerted on the vertical bedding is smooth and the broken block number is fewer; but the fracture surface of lump coal when impact is exerted on the parallel bedding isn't smooth and the broken block number is more,which inflects impact toughness of coal is sensitive to some deficiency.

Combustion characteristics of low concentration coal mine methane in divergent porous media burner

Low-concentration methane(LCM) has been one of the biggest difficulties in using coal mine methane.And previous studies found that premixed combustion in porous media is an effective method of low calorific gas utilization. This paper studied the combustion of LCM in a divergent porous medium burner(DPMB) by using computational fluid dynamics(CFD), and investigated the effect of gas initial temperature on combustion characteristic, the distribution of temperature and pollutant at different equivalence ratios in detail. Besides, the comparison of divergent and cylindrical burners was also performed in this paper. The results show that: the peak temperature in DPMB increases as the increasing of equivalence ratio, which is also suitable for the outlet NO discharge; the linear correlation is also discovered between peak temperature and equivalence ratios; NO emission at the initial temperature of 525 K is 5.64 times,larger than NO emission at the initial temperature of 300 K. Thus, it is preferable to balance the effect of thermal efficiency and environment simultaneously when determining the optimal initial temperature range. The working parameter limits of divergent burner are wider than that of cylindrical one which contributes to reducing the influence of LCM concentration and volume fluctuation on combustion.

CFD Study of Ejector Flow Behavior in a Blast Furnace Gas Galvanizing Plant

In recent years, there has been a growing interest toward Blast Furnace Gas （BFG） as a low-grade energy source for industrial furnaces. This paper considers the revamping of a galvanic plant furnace converted to BFG from natural gas. In the design of the new system, the ejector on the exhaust line is a critical component. This paper studies the flow behavior of the ejector using a Computational Fluid Dynamics （CFD） analysis. The CFD model is based on a 3D representation of the ejector, using air and exhaust gases as working fluids. This paper is divided in three parts. In the first part, the galvanic plant used as case study is presented and discussed, in the second part the CFD approach is outlined, and in the third part the CFD approach is validated using experimental data and the numerical results are presented and discussed. Different Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes （RANS） turbulence models （k-to SST and k-e Realizable） are evaluated in terms of convergence capability and accuracy in predicting the pressure drop along the ejector. Suggestions for future optimization of the system are also provided.
