Important Significance

Mining at the fully mechanized working face below the goaf of the short-distance coal seam is influenced by the upper goaf. To address this problem, methods such as theoretical analyses, numerical simulation, and on-site measurement are used to study the strata behavior characteristics of the Ningxia Lingxin Coal Mine 051508 working face in this study. The roof weighting intervals of the working faces below the goaf and the non-goaf are obtained via theoretical calculations. The stoping processes of the working faces below the goaf and the non-goaf are simulated with FLAC3D to obtain the distribution law of the bearing pressure and plastic zones before the working face. Based on the statistical analysis of the measured working resistance of the supports and its distribution, the roof weighting interval of the working face mining below the goaf is obtained. The results show that the roof weighting interval and the advanced abutment pressure during mining at the working face below the goaf are smaller than those below the non-goaf, providing a reasonable theoretical basis for mining below the goaf, and having important significance for safe and efficient mining.

In order to study the strata behavior characteristics in super-long and large mining height working face, the FLAC-3D software was used to study the roof displacement and the abutment pressure distribution laws of working faces. The results indicate that: ① the influence range is larger of front abutment pressure in Liuzhuang coal mine 171301 super-long large mining height working face, and reaches to 60m. ② the maximum roof displacement increases with the increase of mining depth and working face length, the increase in magnitude decreases gradually, while the maximum roof displacement sharply increases due to the increase of mining height. ③ the peak abutment pressure increases with the increase of mining depth and mining height, the location of peak abutment pressure transfer to ahead of the coal wall. ④ the effect of working face length on abutment pressure is very feeble, so, the strata behavior characteristics remain almost constant with the increase of face length.

On the basis of the field measurement, the characteristics of advance strata behavior are analyzed in the past filling working face and the advance support method is optimized in the roadway. The practical measure researches show that, because the paste filling supports the overlying strata of the goaf availably, the strata behaviors of 2351 paste filling working face in Daizhuang coalmine are not obvious; And the protective pillar bears a little load, The strata behaviors in non-production side are smaller than that in production side. The overlying strata gravity mainly acts on the coal wall in front of the face and the paste filling in the goaf. The value and main influence range of advance stress in front of the face is quite small and the main influence range is less than 15m. According to the advance strata behavior characteristics of the paste filling working face, the advance support of the track roadway is changed from 3 rows to 2 rows. And the support length of each row reduces from 20m to 15m. The advance support after optimizing can reduce the labor intensity greatly and improve the working efficiency of backfill mining.

The Stability

Based on geological conditions of 3318 working face haulage roadway in Xuchang Coal Mine, as well as the space-time relationship with surrounding gob, theoretical analysis and numerical simulation were used to study the influence of fault structure on the original rock stress of 3318 working face transport roadway. Considering the composite action of the leading supporting pressure of 3318 working face and the structure and the lateral supporting pressure of gob, the stress distribution and deformation law of roadway under the complex and high-stress condition are studied. The results show that, under the superposition of lateral abutment pressure of goaf and abutment pressure of adjacent working face and fault structure, the peak stress of roadway roof and floor moves to the surface of roadway surrounding rock, and its distribution law changes from obvious symmetry to asymmetry; surrounding rock on both sides of roadway forms asymmetric circular concentrated stress area; roof and floor and two sides of roadway show asymmetric characteristics. This reveals the stability characteristics of roadway surrounding rock under the action of multiple perturbation stresses.

Based on field observation, analogy simulation and theoretical analysis, the abutment pressure distribution law of fully-mechanized sublevel caving face with extra-thickness was studied. The results showed that: Different instability type of the structure ‘Combined cantilever beam-articulated rock beam’ in fully-mechanized sublevel caving roof led to cyclical changes of abutment pressure; with an invariable coal seam thickness and increasing cutting height, abutment pressure peak value tended to stabilize after reaching the maximum, but as the working face advancing its location transferred to the front of coal wall working face and the influence region of abutment pressure increased; with an invariable cutting height and increasing once mining thickness, abutment pressure peak value decreased, and the distance between peak point and coal wall and the influence region increased. The results of the study would have some guiding role in extra-thickness fully mechanized mining’s safety and efficiency.

Based on the big thickness, low stiffiness and other characters of No. 8 coal seam in Huaibei mining area, the moving laws of top coal seam and roof, and distribution law of ground pressure were studied under the fully mechanized top coal caving.

Abstract Based on the field measurement of the end resistance of the support during the initial weighting of the basic roof and the macroscopic mine pressure behavior during the weighting period of 101,22211,103 and 301 fully mechanized caving face in Changchun Xing Coal Mine, the mine pressure law of the working face is summarized and compared, and the relationship between the working face length and the working resistance of the support ( the weighting strength ) and the macroscopic mine pressure behavior is obtained. In the range of face length 126-230 m, with the increase of face length, the end-of-cycle resistance of the support gradually increases and the dynamic load coefficient of the support gradually increases when the coefficient of the support gradually increases, and the strata behavior of the working face changes from strong to very strong. When the face length is short ( 126-140.5m ), the hanging top area is too large to cause hurricanes when the working face is pressed, which threatens and damages the personal safety and equipment of the working face staff. Based on the above research, the problem of optimizing the surface length is proposed, and the surface length is determined to be within the range of 140-230 m according to the measured results.

The Relationship

According to the practical condition of 3401 fully mechanized caving face in Dayang coal mine, the relationship between strata behaviors, mining technology and stope gas emission are analyzed through real-time monitoring of the support working resistance, advance abutment pressure and gas concentration of working face. It shows that the change of working face abutment pressure has an obvious effect on the regularity of coal face gas emission. The crest value of gas emission falls behind periodic weighting, the lagging time is about one day. Other factors, like coal production processes, daily coal output and advance speed also have close relationships with gas emission.
