Propagation law of shock waves and gas flow in cross roadway caused by coal and gas outburst

In order to study the propagation law of shock waves and gas flow during coal and gas outburst,we analyzed the formation process of outburst shock waves and gas flow and established the numerical simulation models of the roadways with 45°intersection and 135°intersection to simulate the propagation of outburst gas flow and the process of gas transport.Based on the analysis of the simulation results,we obtained the qualitative and quantitative conclusions on the characteristics and patterns of propagation and attenuation of outburst shock waves and gas flow.With the experimental models,we investigated the outburst shock waves and gas flow in the roadways with the similar structures to the simulated ones.According to the simulation results,when the angle between the driving roadway and the adjacent roadway increased,the sudden pressure variation range in adjacent roadway and the influencing scope of gas flow increased and the sudden pressure variation duration decreased.The intersection between the driving roadway and the adjacent roadway has no effect on airflow reversal induced by the shock waves and gas flow.

Signal characteristics of coal and rock dynamics with micro-seismic monitoring technique

In this study, differences of signal characteristics between mine shocks and coal and gas outbursts in coal mines were examined with the micro-seismic monitoring technique and time-frequency analysis. The duration of the mine shock is short while the coal and gas outburst lasts longer. The outburst consists of three stages： the pre-shock, secondary shock and main shock stage, respectively. The velocity amplitude of the mine shock is between 10 s and 10-3 m/s, which is higher than that of the outburst with the same energy level. In addition, in both cases, the correlation between the velocity amplitude and energy is positive while the correlation between the signal frequency band distribution and energy is negative. The signal frequency band of the high energy mine shock is distributed between 0 and 50 Hz, and the low energy mine shock is between 50 and 100 Hz. The fractal characteristics of mine shocks were studied based on a fractal theory. The box dimensions of high energy mine shocks are lower than the low energy ones, however, the box dimensions of outbursts are higher than that of mine shocks with the same energy level. The higher box dimensions indicate more dangerous dynamic events.

Shock relations in gases of heterogeneous thermodynamic properties

Shock relations usually found in literatures are derived theoretically under the assumption of homogeneous thermodynamic properties, i.e., constant ratio of specific heats, γ. However, high temperature effects post a strong shock wave may result in thermodynamic heterogeneities and failure to the original shock relations. In this paper, the shock relations are extended to take account of high-temperature effects. Comparison indicates that the present approach is more feasible than other analytical approaches to reflect the influence of γ heterogeneity on the post-shock parameters.
