To study the three-dimensional spatial and temporal distributions of dust in tunneling roadways, and to solve the problems of inadequate time and limited number of monitoring points, this paper designs a device for the real-time monitoring and storage of data on the concentrations of dust at multiple measuring points in the same section of a tunnel. The proposed device can measure the total concentration of dust and that of respirable dust in real time at different instances and locations, and using different working procedures. These measurements are used to study the temporal and spatial migration of dust. The results show that there was a sharp fluctuation zone 0-25 m from the heading face, about 25-40 m was high speed subsidence, beyond 40 m was gentle subsidence, The change of respiratory dust is much smoother. At different distances from the heading face, the total dust concentration exhibited a process of ''violent oscillation-rapid descent-stable descent,'' while the respirable dust exhibited a process of ''fluctuating ascent-gradual subsidence.'' Changes in the concentrations of total dust and respirable dust dust were consistent at different positions in the same section of the tunnel. The concentration of dust near the wall was low, and those along the sidewalk and air duct of the roadway were slightly higher than in the middle. The concentration of dust farther down the air duct decreased more slowly than that in the remaining lines of measurement. Small amounts of dust featuring large particles settled quickly. High concentrations of dust were observed to be intermittent, and the background value of dust concentration within 100 m of heading face was between 0.5 and 3 mg/m 3 .
Dust pollution is very serious in coal mining process, which is a great threat to the underground staff health and equipment and facilities safety. Coal seam water injection in mining process is an effective way to reduce coal mine dust concentration at the source. However, the effectiveness of water injection is limited in high-pressure and low-porosity coal seam. To improve the moisture content of coal seam, expand the wetting range and enhance the effect of dust reduction by water injection, the injectability and influencing factors of coal water injection are analyzed by numerical simulation method, and the sealing technology under high-pressure condition is studied. Then, according to the practical conditions of Tangkou coal mine, the parameters and process system of process system are designed, the effect of high-pressure water injection in coal seam was determined by testing water injection quantity, water increment and dust concentration. It is showed that the dust-removal rate of the high dust concentration operation such as falling coal and moving frame is 63.49% and 59.72%, the maximum dust-removal rate of multi-processes is 53%, which achieve a high level of application. The research results in this paper is of important theoretical and practical value to improve the water injection effect of high-pressure and low-porosity coal seam and improve the efficiency of dust removal in coal mining process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
