Research on deep hole segmented charge cut blasting of rock roadway based on numerical simulation

Abstract

With the increase of the depth of the blast hole, the rock clamping effect at the bottom of the blast hole is enhanced, resulting in low rock breaking efficiency and blast hole utilization. The past continuous charging method can not solve the above problems. On this basis, this paper studies the rock roadway deep hole segmented charging cut blasting technology to improve the cut blasting efficiency. Using the smooth particle hydrodynamics-finite element method (SPH-FEM), a single-hole cut blasting model with different segmented charge structures was established, and the blasting speed of rock particles in the rock, the number of rock blasting and the characteristics of blasting cavity were analyzed in the blasting process under different models. The results show that different charge structures affect the damage range of the rock near the blast hole, and the damage area of the traditional continuous charge structure in the direction of the blast hole is larger than that of the segmented charge structure. In addition, the continuous charge structure makes the energy distribution of the explosive uneven because the explosive is concentrated at the bottom of the blast hole, resulting in poor blasting effect. The segmented charge structure can increase the number of rock fragments and optimize the blasting cavity, and the rock particles accelerate twice in the process of flying. The large or small proportion of the first segment charge obviously causes the unreasonable use of explosive energy and the poor effect of blasting cavity. Under the conditions of blast hole length, rock parameters and explosive performance set in the simulation, when the first stage charge ratio is 0.4, deep-hole rock tunnel excavation and blasting can make full use of explosive energy to achieve better cut blasting effect. The optimal subsection ratio obtained by numerical simulation was applied to the blasting construction of roadway excavation, and the delay initiation of two explosives in the cut hole was realized by using digital electronic detonator. The field test results show that the segmented charging can create good blasting effect and improve the utilization rate of blast holes in deep hole cut blasting.
