Abstract
Description
Technical field:
[0001] This application relates to the field of prevention and treatment of coal mine gas explosions, especially to a safety evaluation method for annular metal-coupled surge pulse energy in underground coal mines. Background technology:
[0002] Safety accidents caused by gas explosions, gas-coal dust explosions, and coal dust explosions are considered major accidents in coal mines, resulting in immeasurable casualties and property losses. Metal structures in coal mines that act as receiving antennas can couple and absorb electromagnetic field energy generated by surrounding radiation sources, generating induced voltages and forming active internal circuits. Under certain conditions, these structures can produce discharge sparks, posing a risk of igniting explosive gases. To this end, my country has developed the relevant safety document GB / T 3836.1-2021, "Explosive Atmospheres - Part 1: General Requirements for Equipment," which stipulates that the radio frequency power of wireless transmitters used in explosive environments underground in coal mines must not exceed 6W.
[0003] Surges are common transient electromagnetic interference in power equipment. Their primary sources are direct or indirect lightning strikes from external devices, as well as internal startups and shutdowns or power supply system failures. Surge pulses can generate extremely strong electromagnetic fields around transmission cables, impacting the electromagnetic environment underground in coal mines and affecting the normal operation of monitoring, communication, and control systems. If metal structures are located around transmission cables carrying surge pulses, they will also couple and absorb the radiated electromagnetic field energy generated by the surge pulse flowing through the transmission cable, thereby generating an induced voltage within the metal structure. This process is essentially the same as the process by which metal structures couple and absorb the electromagnetic wave energy emitted by the transmitter of wireless communication equipment, and theoretically, there is the potential for igniting explosive gases. However, current research on the coupling of surge pulse radiated electromagnetic wave energy to metal structures is a blank area.
