Three-dimensional numerical simulation of methane drainage by high-level drill holes in a lower protective coal seam with a “U” type face

Different drill-hole positions may produce different drainage results in low protective coal seams.To investigate this possibility,a 3D stope model is established,which covers three kinds of drill holes.The FLUENT computational fluid mechanics software is used to solve the mass,momentum and species conservation equations of the model.The spatial distributions of oxygen and methane was obtained by calculations and the drainage results of different drill-hole positions were compared.The results show that,from top to bottom,methane dilution by oxygen weakens gradually from the intake to the return side,and methane tends to float;methane and oxygen distribute horizontally.The high-level crossing holes contribute to better methane drainage and a greater level of control.Around these holes,the methane density decreases dramatically and a "half circle"distribution is formed.The methane density decreases on the whole,but a proportion of the methane moves back to deep into the goaf.The research findings provide theoretical grounds for methane drainage.

基于伪点剔除与四域样条插值的三维煤层建模

三维煤层精确建模受地下断层、岩层、地势起伏等因素的影响,建模精度不高。为提高三维煤层建模的精度,提出一种基于伪点剔除与四域样条插值的三维煤层精确建模算法,通过伪点剔除方法对建模点进行预处理,筛选出其中的孤立点,进行剔除,其余非孤立点用于基本模型建立和基于映射的模型重构,采用四域样条插值方法对非孤立点进行建模,在建模中,将建模域分为起始域、延伸域、稳定域、收敛域共四个域,在不同域中,对不同的建模点进行匹配加权插值处理,经过四域联合滤波,实现四域样条插值,对建模效果起到平滑滤波作用,从而大大提高三维建模精度。仿真实验表明,新算法对于外界断层、岩层、地势起伏等具有很好的鲁棒性,三维建模精度提高,并且计算量明显较少。

面向实时可视化的煤层三维模型构建与三角剖分

通过研究煤层构造的特征和煤田勘察数据的生产特点,提出一种基于三维格网的虚拟不规则六面体层状包络体动态建模方法,可较好地描述煤层的地质形态;根据煤层格网数据单元格种类(5种类型)的不同和每个单元中无效点分布情况,提出一种基于上述六面体单元的三角网剖分算法,可实时地从数据库中调用分块的层状格网模型数据,经过一次六面体格网单元的遍历,即可将格网数据动态剖分成无缝、不重复、具有方向的三角面片,然后由显示引擎进行实时三维可视化表达。该模型结合了三角网具有利于实体表面三维可视化渲染的特性和四边形规则格网模型有利于通过插值生成的优势,模型构建算法可基于数据库中的数据进行动态渲染,有利于数据更新,使模型简洁、高效,冗余较少。
