Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of three-dimensional similar simulation experiment of coal mine, and particularly relates to a device and method for simulating coal mine intensive drilling top cutting pressure relief. BACKGROUND
[0002] Three-dimensional similar simulation experiment is an important technical means for studying the breaking and caving law of underground rock stratum and the variation characteristics of ground stress in the field of geotechnical engineering. Its implementation process usually involves selecting quartz sand, gypsum and other similar materials to construct a physical model based on actual engineering conditions, excavating the model after it is solidified, and monitoring relevant parameters. In the study of coal mining, intensive drilling top cutting pressure relief technology is a key measure to control the deformation of surrounding rock. How to scientifically and accurately reproduce this process in similar simulation experiments is a current research difficulty.
[0003] Currently, in three-dimensional similar simulation, the simulation of intensive drilling mainly relies on two methods: one is to pre-bury rigid materials such as steel pipes and wooden rods, and the other is to use mechanical devices to drill holes. However, the method of pre-burying rigid materials has significant drawbacks. If the material is cemented with the rock stratum, the rigid body will provide additional support, severely weakening the effect of top cutting pressure relief. If it cannot be effectively cemented, it will form artificial structural plane defects at the beginning of the experiment, leading to premature destruction of the rock stratum and failing to truly reflect the drilling pressure relief mechanism. Using a miniature drilling machine to drill mechanically not only requires expensive equipment and limited operating space, but also causes vibrations during drilling that cannot be ignored, which will disturb the model and destroy the original stress balance of the rock stratum.
[0004] In summary, the existing simulation methods cannot achieve high-quality drilling simulation without disturbing the model stress field, which limits the accuracy and reliability of the experimental results. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find a new method for simulating intensive drilling that can avoid the rigid support effect and eliminate mechanical disturbance, while being convenient to operate and low in cost, to meet the urgent needs of coal mine top cutting pressure relief mechanism research. SUMMARY
[0005] The present application aims to overcome the deficiencies of rigid pre-buried parts producing additional support effect and mechanical drilling disturbance in the prior art, and provides a device and method for simulating coal mine intensive drilling top cutting pressure relief.

[0052] Embodiment 1
[0053] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 A specific embodiment of the present application discloses a device for simulating the cutting of the top of a dense drill hole in a coal mine, which comprises a box body 1, a bottom rock layer 2, a coal seam 3, an overburden 4 and a dense drill hole simulation device 5. The dense drill hole simulation device 5 comprises a conductive heating resistance wire 6, paraffin 7, a wire 8, a temperature sensor 9, a temperature controller 10, a wax guide pipe 11, a wax storage tank 12 and a negative pressure generating device 13.
[0054] As shown in Figure 1As shown, the floor strata 2, coal seam 3 and overburden 4 are arranged in the box 1 from bottom to top, and the dense drilling simulation device 5 is embedded above the coal seam 3 and in the overburden 4. The conductive heating resistance wire 6 is uniformly distributed and wrapped in the paraffin 7, and the temperature sensor 9 is attached to the surface of the conductive heating resistance wire 6. The temperature controller 10 is electrically connected to the conductive heating resistance wire 6 and the temperature sensor 9 through the wire 8. The molten paraffin is led out from the bottom of the dense drilling simulation device 5 through the wax guide pipe 11, passes through the overburden 4, the coal seam 3 and the floor strata 2, and finally collects in the wax guide pipe outlet reserved in the side wall of the box 1.
[0055] As shown in Figure 1 The box 1 is made of transparent hard material, which defines an experimental space for accommodating the floor strata 2, coal seam 3, overburden 4 and dense drilling simulation device 5. The side wall of the box 1 is provided with a wax guide pipe outlet, and the bottom is provided with a wire hole. The material of the box is transparent and hard, which can clearly observe the caving and migration process of the internal strata during the experiment. The number of wax outlets and wire holes corresponds to the number of dense drilling simulation devices 5 to meet the needs of multi-hole synchronous simulation.
[0056] As shown in Figure 1 The floor strata 2 and overburden 4 are made of similar simulation materials. The similar simulation materials include quartz sand, water, cement, dimethyl silicone oil and other components. The physical and mechanical properties of each component are strictly corresponding to the physical and mechanical properties of the actual strata according to the similarity principle. The coal seam 3 is assembled by several independent solid pads. The material of the solid pad can be iron or wood. The solid pad is configured to be manually removed to simulate the coal seam excavation process.
[0057] As shown in Figure 2 The drilling simulation material of the dense drilling simulation device 5 is columnar paraffin 7. The paraffin 7 is a fusible material and has a cylindrical structure. The conductive heating resistance wire 6 is uniformly distributed in the paraffin 7 along the axial length direction of the paraffin 7, which is used to heat and melt the paraffin 7 to simulate the drilling excavation. By changing the heating temperature of the conductive heating resistance wire 6, the diameter of the hole formed by the melting of the paraffin 7 can be controlled, thereby simulating the excavation of dense drilling with different hole diameters. By changing the length of the conductive heating resistance wire 6 connected to the circuit, the length of the hole formed by the melting of the paraffin 7 can be controlled, thereby simulating the excavation of dense drilling with different hole depths.
[0058] As shown in Figure 2As shown, the wires 8 are connected to the top and bottom of the dense drilling simulation device 5, respectively, for connecting the power supply, the conductive heating resistance wire 6 inside the dense drilling simulation device 5, the temperature sensor 9, and the temperature controller 10. One end of the wax guide pipe 11 is in communication with the paraffin 7 at the bottom of the dense drilling simulation device 5, and the other end is arranged in the horizontal direction, selecting a path (i.e., the shortest path) that has the least impact on the movement of the rock stratum, extending to the wax guide pipe outlet at the side wall of the box 1. In order to avoid the dense ramming of the similar simulation material causing the wax guide pipe 11 to be closed, a detachable guide bracket is used inside the wax guide pipe 11 to temporarily fix the path and provide support. The outlet of the wax guide pipe 11 is connected to the wax storage tank 12, which is further connected to the negative pressure generating device 13 for generating negative pressure to extract the molten paraffin. The temperature sensor 9 is attached to the surface of the conductive heating resistance wire 6 and is electrically connected through the wire 8 for real-time monitoring of the temperature of the conductive heating resistance wire 6. The temperature controller 10 is configured to adjust the heating power and heating time of the conductive heating resistance wire 6 to accurately control the melting radius of the paraffin 7.
[0059] Embodiment 2
[0060] Another specific embodiment of the present application discloses a method for simulating the cutting and pressure relief of dense drilling in a coal mine, which uses the device described in Embodiment 1, and includes the following steps:
[0061] Step S1, based on the actual engineering geological conditions of the coal mine and the physical and mechanical properties of the floor rock stratum, using quartz sand, kaolin, water, cement, dimethyl silicone oil and other similar simulation materials, the similar simulation materials are laid and rammed at the bottom of the box 1 based on the similarity principle to form the floor rock stratum 2.
[0062] Step S2, based on the actual engineering geological conditions of the coal seam, a certain number of solid pads are laid on the floor rock stratum 2 to form the coal seam 3. The solid pads can be made of iron or wood materials.
[0063] Step S3, according to the pre-set dense drilling cutting and pressure relief design scheme under the actual engineering geological conditions of the coal mine, the arrangement mode and key parameters of the dense drilling simulation device 5 are determined. The key parameters include the drilling diameter and the drilling depth. A plurality of dense drilling simulation devices 5 are installed at predetermined positions above the coal seam 3, the wax guide pipe 11 is connected to the bottom of the dense drilling simulation device 5, and the detachable guide bracket is installed in the wax guide pipe 11, the wax guide pipe 11 is led out to the outlet at the side wall of the box 1 in the horizontal direction with the shortest path, and the wires 8 are arranged. The arrangement mode of the dense drilling simulation device 5 corresponds to the actual dense drilling engineering design.
[0064] Step S4, according to the actual engineering geological conditions of the coal mine and the physical and mechanical properties of the overburden strata, similar simulation materials such as quartz sand, kaolin, water, cement, and dimethyl silicone oil are used to lay similar simulation materials on the coal seam 3 to wrap the dense drilling simulation device 5 based on the similarity principle, and form the overburden strata 4. After the model is built, it is dried, and the drying time depends on the laboratory temperature and the similarity ratio of the similar materials.
[0065] Step S5, after the model is solidified, the wax storage box 12 is connected with the wax guide pipe 11, and the negative pressure generating device 13 is connected with the wax storage box 12. The wax discharge process is: opening the negative pressure generating device 13; opening the paraffin heating, that is, connecting the power supply through the temperature controller 10 and adjusting the temperature control switch, heating the conductive heating resistance wire 6 inside the dense drilling simulation device 5, melting the internal paraffin 7; observing the wax discharge in the wax storage box 12 to adjust the negative pressure in real time.
[0066] Step S6, the molten paraffin flows out of the box 1 under the action of gravity and negative pressure through the wax guide pipe 11, forming a hole inside the overburden strata 4, thereby simulating the dense drilling and cutting top pressure relief process.
[0067] Further, in step S5, the heating temperature and heating time of the conductive heating resistance wire 6 are adjusted through the temperature controller 10 to control the melting range of the paraffin 7, thereby simulating dense drilling with different diameters. In order to accurately achieve the target diameter, it is necessary to establish a corresponding relationship curve between the heating parameters and the melting diameter in advance through calibration experiments. As shown in FIG. 6, where D is the diameter of the paraffin 7, if the first diameter of the simulated dense drilling is D1, the temperature of the conductive heating resistance wire 6 is controlled by the temperature controller 10 to be T1, and the heating time is t1, so that part of the paraffin 7 is heated and melted and guided out through the wax guide pipe 11, forming a hole with a diameter of D1 in the overburden strata 4; as shown in FIG. 7, if the second diameter of the simulated dense drilling is D2 which is greater than the first diameter, the temperature of the conductive heating resistance wire 6 is controlled by the temperature controller 10 to be T2 which is greater than T1, and the heating time is t2 which is greater than t1, where D2>T1, because the temperature of the conductive heating resistance wire 6 is higher, the paraffin 7 inside is all in a molten state and guided out through the wax guide pipe 11, forming a hole with a diameter of D2 in the overburden strata 4. Figure 3 Figure 3
[0068] Figure 4 As shown, further, in step S3, if the borehole depths of the borehole cutting top pressure relief design scheme under the actual engineering geological conditions are different, the length of the conductive heating resistance wire 6 connected to the circuit is selected according to the preset borehole depth requirement through the lead 8. The conductive heating resistance wire 6 is divided into several independently controlled sections according to the preset length, and each section of the conductive heating resistance wire 6 can be independently connected to the temperature controller 10. In step S5, only the conductive heating resistance wire 6 in the circuit part is heated to melt the paraffin 7 in the corresponding length range, the heated length of the paraffin 7 is changed, and a hole with a specific depth is formed in the overburden 4 to simulate the dense borehole with different depths.
[0069] Further, before step S5, a calibration step is also included: a calibration experiment is performed in advance to establish a corresponding relationship curve between the heating parameters of the conductive heating resistance wire 6 and the melting diameter of the paraffin 7. The heating parameters include heating power, heating temperature and heating time. In step S5, the parameters of the temperature controller 10 are set according to the corresponding relationship curve to accurately simulate the target hole diameter.
[0070] Further, after the dense borehole simulation in step S6 is completed, the solid pad of the coal seam 3 is manually removed to simulate the coal seam excavation, and the caving and migration law of the overburden 4 under the action of the dense borehole cutting top pressure relief is observed and recorded.
[0071] Compared with the prior art, the simulation coal mine dense borehole cutting top pressure relief device and method provided by the above embodiment has the following beneficial effects:
[0072] First, through the cooperation of the conductive heating resistance wire 6, the temperature sensor 9 and the temperature controller 10, the heating parameters of the conductive heating resistance wire 6 can be accurately controlled, and the borehole shape with different diameters, depths and spatial distributions can be accurately reproduced, so that the borehole parameters are controllable and the experiment is accurately simulated.
[0073] Second, the dense borehole is simulated by melting the paraffin 7, and through the cooperation of the conductive heating resistance wire 6, the temperature sensor 9 and the temperature controller 10, the borehole simulation device is pre-embedded in the model without physical excavation or external mechanical disturbance, so that the borehole simulation does not need to be excavated, the continuity of the original stress state of the rock stratum is maintained, the continuity of the rock stratum stress state is effectively maintained, the support effect of the rigid pre-embedded part and the stress disturbance of the mechanical drilling are eliminated, and the authenticity of the top cutting and pressure relief simulation is significantly improved.
[0074] Third, by adjusting the heating scheme of the conductive heating resistance wire 6, the comparative study of various borehole arrangement schemes can be realized in the same model, the flexibility of the experimental scheme implementation is improved, and the experimental efficiency is greatly improved.
[0075] Fourthly, the device saves complicated hydraulic or mechanical transmission mechanism, compared with traditional hydraulic or mechanical drilling device, the scheme has simple structure, convenient operation and low cost, which greatly reduces experimental cost and operation difficulty.
[0076] Fifthly, through cooperation of temperature sensor 9 and temperature controller 10, all control conditions can be parameterized, experimental process parameter can be recorded systematically, and experimental repeatability can be ensured, so that the obtained result is more accurate and reliable, and the reliability of data is improved.

Moreover, the terms "include", "contain" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that the process, method, article or device including a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed or inherent to such process, method, article or device.
[0078] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present application, and it should be pointed out that, for those skilled in the art, without departing from the technical principles of the present application, a number of improvements and modifications can be made, and these improvements and modifications should be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
