Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of coal seam floor pressure bearing capacity evaluation, and in particular to a method for evaluating the pressure bearing capacity of a complete floor during pressure mining. Background Art

[0002] Water damage is one of the five major disasters in underground coal mining. Once it occurs, it often causes major casualties and property losses. There are mainly roof water damage, floor water damage, old empty water damage and other forms. The channels for water inrush include natural channels, artificial channels and disturbance activation channels. The prevention and control of mine water damage is relatively difficult. The specific work is divided into two aspects: prevention and control. The premise of prevention and control is to scientifically carry out water damage risk assessment. At present, the evaluation of water damage in bottom plate pressure mining mainly refers to the water inrush coefficient method in the "Coal Mine Water Prevention and Control Detailed Rules". This method is an empirical method that summarizes the examples of water inrush at home and abroad for decades. The water inrush coefficient method calculates the ratio of the water pressure of the bottom plate aquifer to the thickness of the bottom plate aquiclude, and then compares the water inrush coefficient limit value specified in the "Coal Mine Water Prevention and Control Detailed Rules" to evaluate the safety of the bottom plate under pressure mining. Since this method is summarized from experience, the evaluation conclusion is generally conservative and the evaluation result is not accurate enough. Summary of the invention

[0007] (2) Compare the damage depth determined in step (1) with the top surface of the water-bearing rock layer in the working face floor and the bottom boundary of the floor damage zone. If the floor damage zone has affected the aquifer, mining at the working face is unsafe and a water disaster will occur. Otherwise, use steps (3) to (8) for evaluation.

[0013] (8) The thickness of the overlying rock layer of the aquifer is h, then the water inrush safety factor is e = (N 0y +(h×2.2 / 100)) / P0; if e>1, the evaluated pressure-bearing capacity of the complete bottom plate of the pressurized working face is sufficient, and the working face mining process is safe; otherwise, the working face mining process is unsafe.

[0019] (d) Analyze the temporal and spatial distribution of bottom plate microseismic events and monitor the evolution of current and apparent resistivity in bottom plate sections;

[0020] (e) The damage depth of the working face mining floor is determined by the number of floor microseismic events, energy and density accumulation layers, and the abnormal apparent resistivity area of ​​the monitoring floor section.

[0021] Preferably, the sampling depth of the water-bearing rock formation in step (3) is 5-10 meters.

[0022] Preferably, when coring in step (3), three groups of samples are taken from the corresponding water-bearing stratum itself, the overlying stratum of the aquifer, and the rock samples in the contact zone between the aquifer and the overlying stratum. The tensile strength values ​​N1, N2, and N3 in step (4) are the average values ​​of the tensile strength values ​​of the three groups of samples.
