In order to supply the required air volumes to the production areas of a mine, operators need to know the cause and effect of any changes requested from the VOD system. The sensitivity analysis is developed through generating a cause and effect matrix of sensitivity factors on given parameter changes in a ventilation system. This new utility, which was incorporated in the 3D-CANVENT mine ventilation simulator, is able to predict the airflow distributions in a ventilation network when underground conditions and ventilation controls are changed. For a primary ventilation system, the software can determine the optimal operating speed of the main fans to satisfy the airflow requirements in underground workings without necessarily using booster fans and regulators locally. An optimized fan operating speed time-table would assure variable demand-based fresh air delivery to the production areas effectively, while generating significant savings in energy consumption and operating cost.展开更多

Based on gas–liquid flow VOF model, dynamic mesh technique and deformation data, numerical simulations for different structure models were achieved, and the law of water motion and influencing factors were analyzed.The results show that the flow in the length direction of the jig is smooth, and second pulsation appears in the separation time and forms the secondary separation. The installation position of screen and the number of air bags have a great influence on the uniformity of flow and velocity. The screen height cannot be too low to avoid forming the unstable flow. At the same time, the screen height cannot be too high, otherwise water velocity will be too small and was unable to provide enough power. At the height of 1.4m,velocity unevenness is minimum and the best uniform flow can be obtained.
