Borehole parameters are quite important for gas drainage. This paper studies the impact of borehole diameter and time on gas drainage and performs numerical simulation on the distribution of gas pressure under the conditions of different borehole diameters and drainage times. The simulation results reveal that, as the borehole diameter increases, the gas drainage volume increases along with it and the gas pressure decreases, but such effect on gas drainage is limited. In terms of drainage time, the longer the drainage time, the greater the drainage impact scope. Taking a gas pressure drop of 51% as the indicator of the effective pre-drainage radius, the distance from the point with a gas pressure drop of 51% to the position of the borehole is the effective pre-drainage radius. When the pre-drainage reached the 30th, 45th, 60th, 75th, and 90th day, the effective pre-drainage radius was 1.04m, 1.29m, 1.51m, 1.68m, and 1.82m respectively. According to the numerical simulation results, the effective pre-drainage radius varies with the pre-drainage time, and the fitting analysis of the two indicates that the relationship between the two can be described by a power function.
