[0022] The specific implementation of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0023] It is easy to understand that according to the technical solution of the present invention, without changing the essential spirit of the present invention, a variety of structural modes and implementation modes that can be replaced by those skilled in the art can be replaced with each other. Therefore, the following specific implementation modes and drawings are only exemplary descriptions of the technical solution of the present invention, and should not be regarded as the whole of the present invention or as a limitation or restriction to the technical solution of the invention.

They are relative concepts and may change accordingly according to different positions and different usage conditions. Therefore, these or other directional terms should not be interpreted as restrictive terms.
[0025] The present application provides a system for monitoring the position and water conductivity of a collapse column 5 , comprising: a monitoring well 1 , an optical fiber unit 4 , a DAS monitoring host 2 and a DTS monitoring host 3 .
[0026] Please refer to Figure 1 to Figure 2 The monitoring well 1 is opened in the mine stratum; the optical fiber part 4 is at least partially arranged in the monitoring well 1, and the optical fiber part 4 includes a single-mode optical fiber and a multi-mode optical fiber.
[0027] On the basis of analyzing the existing geological exploration results of the coal mine, the stratum distribution, geological structure development characteristics and geological conditions revealed by the tunnel are comprehensively studied, and the distribution range of the collapse column 5 is inferred by combining the results of geophysical logging, seismic exploration and electrical exploration. The physical parameters such as stratum temperature, velocity, density and resistivity are preferably selected to determine the location of the monitoring well 1 and make construction deployment. Among them, the monitoring well 1 can be set above the tunnel where the coal mining operation is carried out.
[0028] The DAS monitoring host 2 is connected to the single-mode optical fiber. The portion of the single-mode optical fiber located in the monitoring well 1 is used to continuously collect the acoustic wave signal generated by the vibration of the vibration source and transmit it to the DAS monitoring host 2. The DAS monitoring host 2 obtains the formation strain rate by analyzing the changes in the acoustic wave signal, and defines the position of the collapse column 5 through the formation strain rate.
[0029] The DTS monitoring host 3 is connected to the multimode optical fiber. The part of the multimode optical fiber located in the monitoring well 1 is used to continuously collect temperature signals and transmit the temperature signals to the DTS monitoring host 3. The DTS monitoring host 3 analyzes the temperature signals and combines the position of the collapse column 5 to determine the water conductivity of the collapse column 5.
[0030] In the embodiment of the present application, the sink column 5 is divided into a water-conducting sink column 5 and a waterless sink column 5. The temperature of the water-conducting sink column 5 will decrease due to water conduction. After the spatial distribution position of the sink column 5 is determined by the DAS monitoring host 2, the temperature value in the sink column 5 is measured according to the DTS monitoring host 3. When the temperature drops, it indicates that the water content of the sink column 5 increases.
[0031] The DAS (Distributed Fiber-optic Acoustic Sensing) monitoring host uses the interferometric effect of Rayleigh backscattering of optical fibers to achieve continuous distributed detection of acoustic signals. The DTS (Distributed Temperature Sensing) monitoring host uses optical time domain reflectometry to measure temperature.
[0032] In the embodiment of the present application, the DAS monitoring host 2 continuously collects acoustic signals through single-mode optical fiber and defines the position of the collapse column 5 according to the change of the acoustic signal. The DTS monitoring host 3 continuously collects temperature signals through multi-mode optical fiber and determines the water conductivity of the collapse column 5 according to the change of the temperature signal. Real-time dynamic monitoring of the position and water conductivity of the coal mine collapse column 5 is performed to ensure the safety of the coal mine. At the same time, it has the advantages of low detection cost, long measurement distance, strong anti-electromagnetic interference, high temperature resistance, high pressure resistance and high reliability.
[0033] As an optional embodiment, the DAS monitoring host 2 includes a DAS laser generator, a DAS pulse modulator, a DAS photoelectric detector, and a DAS signal processor that are communicatively connected, and the single-mode optical fiber is connected to the DAS photoelectric detector. The DAS laser generator emits a laser, which is modulated into a DAS pulse light with the same frequency by the DAS pulse modulator. After the DAS pulse light enters the single-mode optical fiber, it generates back-Rayleigh scattered light. The acoustic signal causes the phase of the back-Rayleigh scattered light to change. The DAS photoelectric detector collects the back-Rayleigh scattered light phase change value along the length direction of the single-mode optical fiber, and the formation strain rate is obtained by processing the DAS signal processor. The position of the collapse column 5 is defined by the formation strain rate. The DAS pulse monitors the change of the acoustic signal in the single-mode optical fiber and transmits the change of the acoustic signal. The DAS photoelectric detector receives the back-Rayleigh scattered light phase change value along the axis of the single-mode optical fiber, and obtains the formation strain rate by derivation of the back-Rayleigh scattered light phase change value within a specific time, and uses the change of the formation strain rate to locate the spatial position of the collapse column 5. The time axis of the DAS signal acquisition is the sampling time t, which is needed to define the distance information x along the optical fiber. x can be obtained based on the speed of light C and the effective refractive index neff: x = (C x t) / (2 x neff). The interval between the emitted laser pulses is Δt, and the corresponding length is the gauge length ΔL (for an optical fiber with a certain effective refractive index neff, the time interval Δt corresponds to the difference in the propagation distance of the two pulses in the optical fiber, which is called the gauge length ΔL (Gauge Length: ΔL = (C x t) / (2 x neff)). The time sampling interval dt (i.e. the time interval of the signal) acquired by DAS is smaller, and the corresponding sampling distance is dx (i.e. the track spacing of the signal). At each observation time t (i.e. the time of the signal), DAS measures the relative change in the strain of the optical fiber segment within the range of ±ΔL / 2 (i.e. the gauge length ΔL) of the distance x position (i.e. the track position of the signal) along the optical fiber, which is proportional to the average strain rate within the gauge length ΔL. The observed quantity of DAS is the strain rate.
[0034] As an optional embodiment, the DTS monitoring host 3 includes a DTS laser generator, a DTS modulator, a DTS photoelectric detector, and a DTS data processor that are communicatively connected, and the multimode optical fiber is connected to the DTS photoelectric detector. The DTS laser generator emits a laser, which is modulated into a DTS pulse light with the same frequency by the DTS modulator. The DTS pulse light generates a Raman scattering effect in the multimode optical fiber, decomposed into Stokes reflected light and anti-Stokes reflected light, which are received by the DTS photoelectric detector and processed by the DTS data processor to obtain the temperature signal of the sink column 5. The water conductivity of the sink column 5 is determined by the temperature signal and the position of the sink column 5. When the temperature of the sink column 5 drops, it indicates that the water content of the sink column 5 increases.
[0035] Distributed temperature sensors use optical time-domain backscattering (ODTR) technology to achieve distributed measurement. When a light pulse is injected into an optical fiber from point O and propagates in the optical fiber, scattering occurs. After a period of time, the backscattered light returns to point O. Assuming that the moment of light pulse injection is the origin of time, the relationship between the distance L between the scattering point and point O in the optical fiber and the return time t of the scattered light at that point is:
[0036]
[0037] In the formula: c is the speed of light in a vacuum; n is the refractive index of the optical fiber; t is the time taken for the signal to be transmitted and received.
[0038] It can be seen from formula (1) that the echoes at different times correspond to the scattering generated by points at different distances. The location of the temperature measurement point is achieved by measuring the echoes at different times.
[0039] The perception and measurement of temperature is based on the principle of optical fiber backscattering. When a laser with a wavelength of λ0 is injected into a multimode optical fiber, it continuously generates backscattered light while transmitting forward in the multimode optical fiber. In addition to the central spectrum line with the same wavelength λ0 as the incident light, there are two spectrum lines on both sides of the backscattered light, namely λ0-Δλ and λ0+Δλ. The central spectrum line is the Rayleigh scattering spectrum line. The spectrum line with a wavelength of λs=λ0+Δλ on the low-frequency side is called Stokes reflected light (Stokes); the spectrum line with a wavelength of λa=λ0-Δλ on the high-frequency side is called anti-Stokes reflected light (Anti-Stokes). Anti-Stokes scattered light is sensitive to temperature, and its intensity is modulated by temperature, while Stokes scattered light is basically independent of temperature. The ratio of the light intensities of the two is only related to the temperature of the scattered light, that is:
[0040]
[0041] In the formula: h is Planck's constant; c is the speed of light in vacuum; k is the Boltzmann constant; T is the absolute temperature; Δγ is the offset wave number.
[0042] Therefore, by using anti-Stokes light as the signal channel and Stokes light as the reference channel, and detecting the ratio of the two light intensities, the temperature information of the scattering area can be demodulated. Combining the measurement of back Raman scattering signals with OT-DR technology, a distributed optical fiber temperature measurement system based on back Raman scattering can be realized.
[0043] For formula (2), taking logarithmic functions on both sides, we have:
[0044]
[0045] By transformation we can get:
[0046]
[0047] In the actual test process, the optical fiber sensor is placed at a temperature of T 0 Calibration is performed in a constant temperature box, and the following can be learned through calibration:
[0048]
[0049] Substituting (Formula 5) into (Formula 4) yields:
[0050]
[0051] It can be seen from the above formula that after calibration, the temperature value of each point of the distributed optical fiber can be derived by measuring the ratio of light intensity R(T).
[0052] As an optional embodiment, the single-mode optical fiber and the multi-mode optical fiber are combined to define a composite optical cable, the first end of the composite optical cable is located outside the monitoring well 1, and the second end of the composite optical cable extends to the bottom 10 of the monitoring well 1 and then turns around and extends out of the monitoring well 1. Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, the composite optical cable is first lowered along the wall of the monitoring well 1 to the bottom of the monitoring well 1, and then returns upward to the wellhead of the monitoring well 1 to form a U-shaped loop to achieve the laying of the composite optical cable in the monitoring well 1.
