Experimental research and application of high pressure spray cooling in long distance coal mining face

Abstract

For the problem of high temperature heat damage at 1012102 working face in Yuanzigou Mine, the best spray pressure and nozzle atomization parameters are determined by using the method of spray cooling experiment. The numerical simulation method is used to simulate and analyze the influence of different spray temperature and spray spacing conditions on the cooling effect, and the comfort of human body before and after spray is used to analyze by the linear regression method. The results show that: when the spraying system in the synthesized mining face adopts the group spacing of 10 m, the water temperature is 286 K, and the pressure is 6 MPa, the single group peak temperature reaches 1.3 ℃ compared with the conventional ventilation method. After the application in the field, the temperature of most areas on the sidewalk side of the working face was lower than 26 ℃, the maximum temperature dropped to below 27 ℃, the minimum temperature was as low as 24.7 ℃, which effectively realized the regional cool.
