Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of coal mine production safety, and in particular, relates to an improved intelligent normal pressure long-time coal seam gas content measuring device and method. Background Art

[0002] Coalbed methane (CBM) is a gaseous mineral associated with coal and is a clean energy source. However, it is also the main factor causing mine disasters and accidents. Once a gas disaster occurs, it will cause significant casualties and property losses to the mine. At the same time, coalbed methane is also a major greenhouse gas, and its greenhouse effect is more than 20 times that of carbon dioxide. Large amounts of gas emissions have put great pressure on my country's achievement of its "dual carbon goals". Therefore, whether from the development of gas resources or from the prevention and control of gas disasters and greenhouse gas emissions, key parameters such as gas content should be measured to evaluate key data such as gas resources, reserves, and emissions.

[0003] In order to accurately measure the gas content of coal seams, high-precision gas content measuring devices and scientific and reasonable measuring methods are essential. The coal seam gas content measuring methods currently widely used in my country mainly include drainage gas collection method, rapid gas content measuring method, etc. However, during the measurement process of these methods, it is necessary to carry bulky coal sample measuring tanks, gas desorption instruments, supporting tools and other equipment to the site to measure the amount of natural desorption gas underground, and then seal the device tightly and send it to the ground laboratory for subsequent measurement, or seal the device and perform rapid gas content measurement underground; However, these methods have technical problems such as large gas content measurement errors, high work intensity, time-consuming and labor-intensive, serious gas leakage of the device, and certain safety hazards.

[0004] The Chinese patent application No. 202411566902.1 discloses an intelligent normal pressure long-time coal seam gas content determination device and method, which adopts a normal pressure long-time design, and effectively improves the accuracy of coal seam gas content measurement by keeping the gas pressure in the coal sample determination tank at normal pressure to avoid equipment leakage, and setting a battery and flow automatic determination unit on the coal sample determination tank cover. However, the design embeds batteries, gas flow measurement devices, flow control valves, data storage devices, computing chips and other units in the coal sample determination tank cover, but in the experiments over the past two months, the following problems were found: Due to the extremely narrow space of the coal sample determination tank cover, the capacity of the embedded battery is very limited, and the power supply time for other modules of the coal sample determination tank is greatly limited, and the power supply time will be relatively short, resulting in the coal sample determination tank being powered off before it is sent from the underground to the laboratory on the well, resulting in the loss of coal sample gas desorption data, resulting in the inability to accurately determine the coal seam gas content, which has an adverse impact on coal seam gas resource development, gas disaster prevention and control and other work. Therefore, it is urgent to improve the original coal seam gas content measurement device and method, effectively improve the measurement accuracy of coal seam gas content, and lay the foundation for mine safety production and other work.

A receiving-end charging coil corresponding to the transmitting-end charging coil is arranged inside the explosion-proof battery pack.

[0011] The intelligent method for determining the gas content in a coal seam under normal pressure for a long time is implemented by using the improved intelligent device for determining the gas content in a coal seam under normal pressure for a long time, and comprises the following steps: (1) Test an improved intelligent normal pressure long-term coal seam gas content measuring device to ensure the normal operation of the device; (2) At least two sampling points are selected at the same measurement location, and drilling holes are constructed to sample the gas content in the coal seam; (3) Turn on the touch screen through the touch switch, and input the information of sampling location, sampling personnel, sampling date, and coal sample exposure time through the touch screen; (4) After drilling to the designed depth, collect coal samples at the hole mouth. After filling the tank body with the collected coal samples, wipe the coal dust on the tank mouth and the inner wide rubber pad of the tank cover. After wiping, install the tank cover on the tank body through the internal and external threads to ensure the sealing of the tank body; (5) The gas flow measurement module is turned on by the software system, and the software system records the gas desorption amount of the coal sample and the corresponding desorption time, ambient temperature, and atmospheric pressure; (6) After steps (1) to (5) are completed, the box cover is opened, the coal sample measuring tank is placed in the corresponding positioning hole and positioning groove in the placing box, the charging switch is turned on, and the box cover is closed. The transmitting end charging coil in the box cover corresponds to the receiving end charging coil in the tank cover, and the large-capacity intrinsically safe battery charges the small-capacity intrinsically safe battery through wireless charging; (7) The placement box containing the coal sample test tank is sent to the laboratory. During the transportation of the placement box, wireless charging is carried out continuously to ensure the subsequent residual gas content determination and the continuous completion of the gas desorption determination; (8) Turn on the Bluetooth module through the touch screen, connect to the PC in the laboratory, upload the desorption parameters to the PC, and calculate the measured coal seam gas content by combining the degassing volume, coal sample weight, industrial analysis of coal and gas sample components measured in the laboratory.

[0012] The specific operation process of step (1) is: check whether the tank body and the tank cover are damaged, check whether the wide rubber pad of the tank cover is broken, check whether the cotton yarn column in the intake vertical pipe and the exhaust horizontal pipe is intact, and check whether the software system can operate normally; The specific implementation process of step (2) is as follows: the distance between two sampling points is ≥5m; when sampling is carried out by borehole sampling, the sampling depth is ≥12m; when sampling is carried out by borehole sampling, the depth of the coal hole section is ≥5m.

[0013] The coal sample collected in step (4) is a dry coal sample free of gangue; In step (5), the chip automatically selects the flow meter and records the time of natural gas desorption of the coal sample, the amount of gas desorption, the ambient temperature and the atmospheric pressure.

[0017] The present invention automatically measures parameters such as gas flow, desorption time, ambient temperature, atmospheric pressure, etc., and there is no need for measuring personnel to carry bulky desorption instruments, or matching wrenches, stopwatches, thermometers, barometers, recording paper and pens, etc., which greatly reduces the labor intensity of workers.

[0018] Since the box is always at normal pressure and there is no high pressure in the tank, there is no need to use wrenches or other tools to tighten the device very tightly, which saves time and effort, greatly reduces the occurrence of gas leakage in the device, reduces the measurement error of the instrument, and effectively improves the measurement accuracy of gas content.

[0019] The gas desorbed from the coal sample is discharged naturally, and there is no air holding or high-pressure state in the device, which solves the problem of gas leakage due to poor sealing in existing devices. In the whole process, no manual reading is required, avoiding human operation errors, thereby effectively improving the measurement accuracy of coal seam gas content.

[0020] The gas flow measurement module consists of 3 groups of high-precision electromagnetic flowmeters, which changes the disadvantages of the previous gas desorption measurement device using a single flowmeter or dual flowmeters, and well balances the measurement range and measurement accuracy, reduces instrument errors, and further improves measurement accuracy.

[0021] The present invention is based on the instantaneous gas diffusion coefficient through the data storage and calculation module, which is closer to the actual situation of the coal seam gas desorption process; the present invention automatically calculates the amount of gas loss in the sampling process based on the instantaneous gas diffusion coefficient, effectively reduces the method error from the theoretical basis level, the calculation process is more intelligent, and the calculation result is more accurate, which further improves the measurement accuracy of the gas content.

[0022] The data storage and calculation module automatically measures relevant parameters such as ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure, and automatically converts them into gas desorption amount under standard conditions through built-in programs, which improves the automation and intelligence level of coal seam gas content measurement, greatly simplifies the gas content measurement process, shortens the measurement time, and improves the measurement accuracy.

[0023] To sum up, the present invention has a scientific principle and is easy to operate. It improves the problem of short power supply time of the original device resulting in missing key data and inaccurate gas content measurement, can achieve the purpose of long-term power supply of the system, avoids cumbersome operating steps, greatly reduces work intensity, and improves the intelligence and automation of coal seam gas content through corresponding measurement processes and calculation methods, and effectively solves the technical problems of short power supply time, missing key data, large gas content error, high work intensity, time-consuming and labor-intensive, serious gas leakage of the device and certain safety hazards in the existing measurement devices and methods.
