The invention discloses a device and method integrating electric pulse fracturing and permeability improvement and gas seepage measurement. The device and method are suitable for improving the gas extraction rate of coal seams which has low permeability and high adsorption. The device comprises a high-voltage charging power supply, a high-voltage energy storage capacitor, a high-voltage dischargeswitch, a coal sample fixing device, a hydraulic control system, a vacuum pump device, a gas cylinder and a pressure gauge. The method comprises the steps that 1, the high-voltage charging power supply is used for charging the high-voltage energy storage capacitor; 2, the high-voltage discharge switch is turned on, a coal sample is discharged through a positive electrode and a negative electrode,huge energy is generated and directly acts on a coal body, and cracks are formed in the coal body; and 3, the permeability of the coal sample subjected to breakdown is measured through a built-in gasseepage device in the coal sample fixing device. According to the device and method, integral electric pulse fracturing and permeability improvement and gas seepage measurement can be realized; the method is accurate in measurement, convenient to operate and capable of providing a reliable basis for the electric pulse fracturing effect.
