Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of coal mine safety monitoring technology, specifically to a real-time measurement system and method for gas content in closed underground roadways of coal mines. Background Technology

[0002] In coal mining, it is often necessary to construct sealed walls to enclose roadways to prevent spontaneous combustion in goaf areas and isolate hazardous zones. According to the "Coal Mine Safety Regulations," effective monitoring of the gas situation within the sealed area is essential to prevent gas accumulation and abnormal outbursts, ensuring mine safety. Furthermore, the gas content within the roadway when the sealed wall is opened is a crucial basis for developing specific safety measures.

[0003] Currently, coal mines commonly monitor methane concentration by installing gas sensors in sealed walls or by relying on periodic manual checks. However, due to the continuous deformation of roadways under surrounding rock pressure, the internal volume of the roadway is in a dynamic state of change. Gas concentration data alone cannot accurately calculate the true total amount of methane, leaving the actual amount unknown. Existing technologies cannot achieve continuous and accurate measurement of total methane volume, failing to meet the safety regulations for real-time monitoring and early warning, and also hindering the effective extraction and utilization of methane resources. Discrete and lagging monitoring data turn sealed areas into a "black box" for safety management, making it impossible to quantitatively predict and provide tiered early warnings of methane changes, resulting in persistent safety hazards.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a method and system that can measure the gas content in closed roadways in real time, continuously and accurately, in order to solve the calculation problem caused by the unknown dynamics of gas volume, realize the visual monitoring of the total amount and trend of gas, provide a basis for the utilization of gas resources, and improve the mine's safety early warning and risk management capabilities.

[0093] As attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2As shown, the surrounding rock deformation monitoring module is responsible for acquiring direct physical quantities characterizing the spatial structural changes of the sealed roadway. Circumferential sensing fibers 2 and axial sensing fibers 3 are pre-embedded along the axial and circumferential (top, side, bottom) front of the sealed roadway to form a spatial grid-like monitoring network. All circumferential sensing fibers 2 and axial sensing fibers 3 are fused at nodes, and finally, the ends of all sensing fibers are converged at the designed sealed wall location, and led out through the reserved observation holes to the fiber optic demodulator 7 outside the sealed wall. The fiber optic demodulator 7 transmits the calculated strain information to the data acquisition instrument 13. The data acquisition instrument 13 receives the raw data from the fiber optic demodulator, performs secondary data processing, and transmits it to the ground monitoring center.

[0094] As attached Figure 3 As shown, the pressure sensor 8, temperature sensor 9, gas concentration sensor 10, and quantitative gas injection device 11 are directly installed in the sealed wall 14, with their probes extending into the sealed space to collect the raw physical parameters required for calculation. Each set of sealed walls consists of two layers, with the sealed wall 14 being 0.5m thick and filled with 4m of loess in the middle (the wall thickness and loess filling thickness can be adjusted according to the actual site conditions underground). The sealed wall is equipped with a safety hole 4, an observation hole 5, and a water outlet 6. The safety hole 4 is mainly used for fire prevention and extinguishing, gas control, and sampling. The observation hole 5 is mainly used to monitor the temperature, gas concentration, and internal and external air quality within the sealed tunnel.

[0096] Secondly, this application provides a method for real-time determination of gas content in closed underground roadways of coal mines based on the above-mentioned system, comprising the following steps:

[0097] S1. Before the tunnel is sealed, a distributed sensing fiber optic network is pre-installed along the tunnel's axial and circumferential directions to determine the initial spatial volume of the tunnel. Pressure sensors, temperature sensors, gas concentration sensors, and quantitative gas injection devices are installed inside the observation holes of the sealed wall.

[0098] In this embodiment, before the tunnel is sealed, sensing optical fibers are laid along the critical path of the tunnel and initial calibration is performed to calculate the initial spatial volume of the tunnel. Pressure sensor 8, temperature sensor 9, gas concentration sensor 10, and quantitative gas injection device 11 are installed inside the observation hole of the sealed wall, and all sensors are connected to the data acquisition instrument 13 outside the wall.

[0099] S2. After the tunnel is sealed, start the system to continuously collect distributed strain data of the surrounding rock of the tunnel, as well as gas pressure, gas temperature and gas concentration data inside the sealed space.

[0100] In this embodiment, after the tunnel is sealed, the monitoring system is activated. The surrounding rock deformation monitoring uses the fiber optic demodulator 7 to periodically acquire the strain field data of the surrounding rock in the sealed tunnel. The gas content calculation uses the sensor group installed on the sealed wall to acquire the gas pressure, gas temperature and gas concentration inside the sealed tunnel. All data are synchronized and uploaded to the database of the ground monitoring center through the data acquisition instrument 7.

[0101] S3. Perform inert gas calibration periodically: Record the stable gas concentration in the confined space before injection. ,pressure and temperature Inject a known number of moles After the inert gas is mixed and stabilized, the gas concentration after stabilization is recorded. ,pressure and temperature The current absolute volume is calculated by inversion based on the ideal gas equation of state. ;

[0102] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to calculate the gas content in a closed roadway, the gas concentration before the injection of inert gas must be accurately recorded. tunnel pressure and temperature Then, the control box 17 of the metering gas injection device 11 instructs the valve 16 and the high-precision mass flow controller 20 to open, and then injects a known number of moles. After the inert gas is injected, wait 30 minutes (this can be adjusted according to the tunnel size) to allow the inert gas to mix thoroughly in the closed tunnel until the pressure and temperature stabilize (fluctuations less than 0.1 kPa and 0.1 K). Record the gas concentration after stabilization. tunnel pressure Given temperature T2, apply the ideal gas law to calculate the absolute volume of the current sealed tunnel. for:

[0103]

[0104] Based on the above calculation method, inert gas is periodically injected to perform volume inversion calculation;

[0105] absolute volume The derivation process is as follows:

[0106] Before calibration, the number of moles of gas in the sealed space was: At this point, we have:

[0107]

[0108] injection After adding molar inert gas, the total number of moles of gas in the closed tunnel becomes At this point, we have:

[0109]

[0110] From equations (2) and (3), we can obtain:

[0111]

[0112] Equation (4) is another way of writing equation (1).

[0113] S4. Dynamic Volume Fusion: Based on the distributed strain data acquired in step S2, the volume estimate is calculated using geometric and physical models. ;Will The same period obtained in step S3 The model is compared and fused, and the model parameters are corrected through deviation feedback to output continuous optimal dynamic volume values. ;

[0114] In this embodiment, the initial three-dimensional geometric model is discretized into a shell element mesh. Assuming the surrounding rock is a linear elastic material, its equivalent elastic modulus is defined. Compared to Poisson For the parameters to be calibrated, for each fiber optic measurement point Its measured axial strain It is the strain component of the element at that point along the fiber direction, and the element strain { } and nodal displacements { The relationship between} is { }=[ ]{ },in[ ] is a geometric matrix;

[0115] Therefore, large systems of linear equations can be established: in[ ] is composed of each unit [ The system matrix is ​​assembled by projecting the matrix into the measurement directions. Since the number of measurement points is usually less than the model's degrees of freedom, the equation is an underdetermined problem. Therefore, the Tikhonov regularization method is introduced to solve for minimizing the objective function. in For regularization parameters, [ [This refers to the Laplace smoothing operator. By solving this optimization problem, a stable and smooth optimal displacement solution can be obtained.] }, that is, the three-dimensional displacement field on the surface of the tunnel. .

[0116] Update the coordinates of the roadway surface nodes: The updated surface nodes are subjected to 3D Delaunay triangulation to generate a closed volume mesh composed of tetrahedrons. The volume of each tetrahedron is calculated and summed to obtain the volume of the internal cavity of the tunnel based on the current strain estimate. : The formula for the volume of a tetrahedron is: ,in These are the coordinates of the four vertices of the tetrahedron.

[0117] calculate The volume value V obtained by inversion from the periodic gas law. q The deviation originates from the parameters of the finite element model ( The inaccuracy of ) will As an observation, the model parameters are adjusted in reverse. The correction logic is to feed back the deviation signal; if... > This indicates that the model's estimated volume is too large, potentially underestimating the surrounding rock stiffness. The algorithm will appropriately increase the equivalent elastic modulus E, thus reducing the displacement calculated by the model under the same strain input, and consequently improving the next calculation. Decrease, towards By approaching the target area, the system can output continuous optimal dynamic volume values ​​that have undergone periodic calibration and correction based on multiple tests. .

[0118] S5. Gas content calculation: [The following is a partial translation of the original text and can be left as is:] With real-time monitoring , , Substitute the data into the following formula to calculate the total gas content under standard conditions. :

[0119] .

[0120] In this embodiment, the system will dynamically adjust the volume. gas concentration ,pressure and temperature Substitute into the core algorithm:

[0121]

[0122] Real-time calculation of the total standard state gas content in a confined space This formula is based on the ideal gas law and Dalton's law of partial pressures;

[0123] The derivation process of equation (5) is as follows:

[0124] According to the ideal gas law The partial pressure of gas at that moment is:

[0125]

[0126] The actual volume of gas at time t is:

[0127]

[0128] Under standard conditions, the same amount of gas The volume is The following equation is satisfied:

[0129]

[0130] Equation (5) can be obtained by combining equations (6), (7) and (8).

[0131] S6. Early Warning and Output: Calculation rate of change ,Will and It compares the data with preset multi-level safety thresholds to achieve tiered early warning and displays the results in real time. and data.

[0132] In this embodiment, the system calculates the time in the past hour every 10 minutes. average rate of change According to the mine safety regulations and historical data of this roadway:

[0133] Level 1 Warning (Yellow): Standard cubic meters per hour, or Standard cubic meters; Level II warning (red): Standard cubic meters per hour, or Standard cubic meters.

[0134] When the threshold is triggered, the corresponding area on the monitoring platform interface changes color and flashes, a warning box pops up, and a warning SMS is automatically sent to the person in charge. The second-level warning also triggers the alarm in the dispatch room.

[0135] In one specific implementation, the inversion calculation of the current absolute volume in step S3 The formula is:

[0136]

[0137] In one specific implementation, the dynamic volume fusion in step S4 specifically includes:

[0138] Solving the three-dimensional displacement field on the tunnel surface based on fiber optic strain data;

[0139] Update the node coordinates of the tunnel geometry model, and obtain them through 3D Delaunay triangulation and volume summation. ;

[0140] by To achieve high-precision observations, establish and The deviation is the same as the equivalent elastic modulus of the geometric and physical model. The correction relationship between them, if This increases the equivalent elastic modulus. The assignment of values ​​reduces the displacement calculated by the model under the same strain, thereby reducing the displacement in the next iteration. Decrease and towards To move closer.

[0141] Thirdly, this application provides a method for pinpoint determination of gas content in sealed historical roadways, comprising:

[0142] Pressure sensors, temperature sensors, gas concentration sensors, and quantitative gas injection devices were installed in the observation holes of the sealed walls of the historical alleyways.

[0143] Perform a single or periodic inert gas injection calibration operation, and use the following formula to inversely calculate the absolute volume of the sealed tunnel at the calibration time. :

[0144]

[0145] This volume Gas concentration measured at the same time ,pressure and temperature Substitute into the following formula to calculate the standard state gas content at that moment. :

[0146] .

[0147] In this embodiment, for such historically closed roadways, the core method of the present invention can still provide a discretized, fixed-point method for estimating gas content; in specific implementation:

[0148] Pressure, temperature, and gas concentration sensors, as well as a quantitative gas injection device, are installed in the observation hole of the sealed wall.

[0149] Referring to step 3, perform a single or periodic inert gas injection operation, and use formula (1) to calculate the absolute volume of the sealed tunnel at the current moment. ;

[0150] This volume Gas concentration measured at the same time Substituting into formula (5), the standard state gas content at the current moment can be calculated. .

[0151] It should be noted that this simplified scheme lacks continuous deformation monitoring provided by distributed optical fibers, and therefore cannot construct a dynamic volume V(t). Consequently, the measurement results are volume and content at discrete time points, not continuous real-time data. The continuous change in volume between two calibrations cannot be accurately known and can only be estimated through interpolation or simple trend extrapolation, which limits accuracy. This scheme is mainly used for fixed-point verification, risk assessment, or to provide a rough basis for sampling decisions, and its effectiveness is lower than the main scheme of this invention (pre-embedded optical fiber + dynamic fusion).

[0152] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within the present invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0153] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
