To understand the impacts of the axial-to-radial airflow quantity ratio (denoted as R) and the suction distance (denoted as D) on air curtain dust control in a fully mechanized coal face, the 3610 coal face in Jiangzhuang coal mine was numerically simulated in this study. A mathematic model was established to describe the airflow migration and dust diffusion in a coal face, and a scaled physical model was constructed. The comparison between simulation results and field measurements validated the model and the parameter settings. Furthermore, the airflow migration and dust diffusion at various R and D are analyzed using Ansys CFD. The results show that a reduction of R and D is conducive to the formation of an effective axial dust control air curtain; the dust diffusion distance decreases with the decrease of both R and D. By analyzing the simulation results, the optimal parameter for air curtain dust control in the 3610 coal face and those faces with similar production conditions is determined as R = 1/9 and D = 2 m. Under the optimal parameter condition, the high-concentration dust can be confined in front of the mining driver within a space 5.8 m away from the coal face.
为了研究轴向与径向风流质量比(记为 R)和抽吸距离(记为 D)对综采工作面空气幕除尘的影响,本研究对江庄煤矿 3610 工作面进行了数值模拟。建立了数学模型来描述工作面风流迁移和粉尘扩散,同时还构建了缩尺物理模型。模拟结果与现场测量结果的对比验证了模型和参数设置的合理性。此外,还使用 Ansys CFD 分析了不同 R 和 D 下的风流迁移和粉尘扩散情况。结果表明,减小 R 和 D 有利于形成有效的轴向除尘空气幕;随着 R 和 D 的减小,粉尘扩散距离也会减小。通过对模拟结果进行分析,确定了 3610 工作面及类似生产条件工作面空气幕除尘的最佳参数为 R=1/9 和 D=2m。在最佳参数条件下,高浓度粉尘可在采煤机前 5.8m 范围内的空间内被限制在采掘面。
