Abstract

It is significant to predict the gas emission in the mine gob accurately for gas drainage to prevent accidents and ensure safe production. The change of atmospheric pressure makes the gas emission in the mine gob presents a "breathing phenomenon", which causes the gas concentration in the return airway of the working face fluctuates even if there are no other disturbances. The gas emission of the return airway in mine working face is affected by many factors, so it is difficult to analyze the influences of atmospheric pressure fluctuations on the gas emission of mine gob. In order to reduce interference factors, by continuously monitoring the gas concentration in the return airway of a does not work mine, in the meantime, simultaneously monitoring and analyzing the atmospheric pressure on the ground, this paper studies the influence rules of atmospheric pressure on gas emission in goaf. And a new multi-parameter mathematical model for gas emission in gob is developed, the Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (PSO) is used to invert the optimal parameters, and the model is verified by random monitoring data. The results show that the model can accurately indicate the influence of atmospheric pressure on gas emission in the gob. The faster the ground atmospheric pressure decreases, the higher the gas emission rate of the gob is, and the faster the ground atmospheric pressure increases, the lower the gas emission rate is. In addition, the mathematical model can also invert the effective permeability and effective porosity of the gob, which provides a new idea for the prediction of gas emission from goaf and the evolution characteristics of permeability in goaf.
