Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of underground coal gasification equipment, and in particular to a similar physical experimental device for simulating underground coal gasification at complex burial depths with multiple inclination angles. Background Technology
[0002] In the practice of underground coal gasification production, there are three main combustion chemical reactions:
[0003] C + O₂ → CO₂ -393.5 kJ / mol
[0004] C + CO₂ → 2CO + 172.5 kJ / mol
[0005] C + H₂O → CO + H₂ + 131.28 kJ / mol
[0006] Controlling the stability of the reaction and the composition of the syngas are the main challenges in underground coal gasification technology. Because underground coal gasification is a wellless, in-situ mining process, its gasification process is "invisible." The stability of the underground coal gasification reaction and the composition of the syngas can only be controlled by controlling the concentration, pressure, and temperature of the gasifying agent. Therefore, before underground coal gasification production, it is necessary to conduct gasification pre-experiments to obtain reasonable gasifying agent concentration, pressure, and temperature for specific coal seams. However, conducting underground coal gasification experiments in actual coal seams is costly in terms of manpower, material resources, and time. Existing research methods for underground coal gasification mostly rely on the construction of numerical simulation models using computers. This method is limited by the rationality and accuracy of the numerical simulation model construction and places high demands on the theoretical level and practical ability of the personnel conducting the experiments.
[0007] Current underground coal gasification similarity physics experimental devices have the following problems: 1. Existing underground coal gasification similarity physics experimental devices generally use coal block stacking to simulate coal seams. Even if coal powder or clay is used to coat the coal blocks (as in patent CN113445975A), the discontinuous nature of the simulated coal seam will still have a certain impact on the simulation of coal seam combustion collapse. 2. Underground coal seams generally have a certain angle, some even being steeply inclined or ultra-thin. Although existing underground coal gasification similarity physics experimental devices can apply a certain angle to the furnace body, the combustion chamber inside the furnace is of a fixed size (as in patent CN104457252A), making it impossible to accurately simulate the impact of burial depth, coal seam thickness, or complex overlying strata on underground coal gasification experiments. Summary of the Invention
[0008] The purpose of this invention is to provide a similar physical experimental device for simulating underground coal gasification at complex burial depths with multiple inclination angles. This device conducts coal gasification experiments on coal seams at complex burial depths with multiple inclination angles. It utilizes a hydraulic pressure pump to provide pressure compensation when the coal seam depth is too large to simulate all strata using similar physical materials. Combined with other instruments, it obtains key data such as the optimal composition ratio of the gasifying agent mixture and the optimal gas-producing components, thereby providing theoretical guidance for underground coal gasification production in the area where the experimental coal seam is located.

The hydraulic pressurizing pump oil pipeline is also provided with at least one hydraulic pressurizing pump inlet. The top sliding cover is provided with an O-ring seal on its side and forms a seal with the inner wall of the furnace body. The front protruding part of the top sliding cover is provided with longitudinal bolt holes for connection with the front cooling assembly. The front protruding part of the top sliding cover is also provided with an O-ring seal pressurizing oil inlet, an O-ring seal pressurizing oil outlet, and a top cover transverse bolt hole for fixing with the sliding claw hook. A top liquid cooling box is provided above the top sliding cover.

[0011] Preferably, the side cooling assembly includes a side liquid cooling box, which is divided into liquid cooling boxes disposed on both sides and the back of the furnace body.

The side liquid cooling box is provided with a side circulating coolant inlet, and the bottom liquid cooling box is provided with a circulating coolant outlet. A side level is provided at a parallel position to the air inlet.
[0012] Preferably, the front-end cooling assembly includes a front-end sliding cover plate, which engages with a furnace body slide groove at the front end of the furnace body. A front liquid cooling box is provided on the surface of the front-end sliding cover plate, which is provided with a front circulating coolant inlet, a front level, and a front circulating coolant outlet. The front-end sliding cover plate is machined with transverse bolt holes for fixing with sliding claw hooks, and the sliding claw hooks engage with claw hook slide grooves provided on the back of the furnace body slide groove.
[0013] Preferably, the sealing pressurizing pump assembly includes a sealing pressurizing pump oil pipeline. One end of the sealing pressurizing pump oil pipeline is connected to a sealing system pressurizing liquid inlet located on the back of the furnace body.

[0016] Therefore, this utility model employs the aforementioned simulated coal underground gasification similar physical experimental device for complex burial depths with multiple inclination angles. It can simulate the actual angle of coal seam occurrence. Furthermore, due to the presence of the top sliding cover and the front sliding cover, the size of the combustion chamber of the furnace can be adjusted. Considering the influence of factors such as the discontinuity of coal seam texture on the gasification process and the collapse of the combustion zone by using coal block stacking, the adjustable combustion chamber structure design allows large blocks of coal to be cut into cuboids and placed directly inside the experimental furnace. Other similar physical materials are then filled to simulate the coal seam roof, overlying rock strata, and other formations, making the coal underground gasification experiment closer to the real coal underground gasification production process. Moreover, the hydraulic pressure pump can provide pressure compensation when the coal seam burial depth is large and it is impossible to simulate all formations with similar physical materials. This invention, in conjunction with other instruments, can accurately capture or record various key gasification data from similar physical experiments of underground coal gasification, such as gasifying agent temperature, gasifying agent pressure, gasifying agent flow rate, gasifying agent concentration, gas production components, gas production concentration, and the shape and size of the coal seam combustion zone. By analyzing the experimental data, it can determine the optimal composition ratio of the gasifying agent mixture and the optimal gas production components when the combustion zone collapses and causes a shutdown. This provides theoretical guidance for underground coal gasification production in the area where the experimental coal seam is located.

A front liquid cooling box 21 is provided on the surface of the front sliding cover plate 20, with a front circulating coolant inlet 22, a front level 23, and a front circulating coolant outlet 24.

[0045] The steps for using the simulated underground coal gasification similarity physical experimental device at complex burial depths and multiple inclination angles described in this utility model include:
[0046] S1. The original design of this utility model is to cut large coal pieces into single coal pieces and then simulate coal seams using similar physical materials. The bottom dimensions of the furnace combustion chamber are designed to be 400mm×500mm. Due to the presence of the front sliding cover plate 20 and the top sliding cover plate 18, the height of the furnace combustion chamber can be adjusted from 400mm to 800mm. Large coal pieces sampled on-site are cut into coal seam shapes of 400mm×500mm×10mm. Data on the rock mechanical properties of the roof, floor, and strata in the coal seam storage environment are extracted. Based on the mechanical property data, materials such as sand, calcium carbonate, gypsum, and water are mixed in a certain proportion using the physical principle of material similarity to prepare the roof, floor, and strata. Their planar dimensions are all 400mm×500mm, while the height is determined according to the actual longitudinal thickness ratio of each stratum.
[0047] S2. Slide the top sliding cover plate 18. Determine the longitudinal height of the furnace combustion chamber according to the actual coal seam burial depth. Slide the front sliding cover plate 20 to match this height. At this time, slide the sliding claw hooks 4 into the claw hook grooves 29 (the number of sliding claw hooks 4 should be no less than 5 on each side) and connect them with the transverse bolt holes 30 of the front cover plate. Use bolts to fix them to form a seal. Arrange the bottom plate, coal seam, top plate and various strata prepared using similar physical materials in the combustion chamber from bottom to top. Connect the coal seam to the air inlet 5 and the air outlet 5. 31 is flush with the coal seam. A gasification channel is drilled through the gas inlet 5 through the gas inlet 5 to the coal seam inside the gas outlet 31. At this time, the top sliding cover plate 18 is placed on the furnace body and is flush with the front sliding cover plate 20. Two sliding claw hooks 4 are used on each side of the top sliding cover plate 18. The horizontal bolt holes 37 of the top cover plate and the sliding claw hooks 4 are fixed with bolts to form a seal. The longitudinal bolt holes 38 in the middle of the protruding part at the front of the top sliding cover plate 18 are fixed with the front sliding cover plate 20 to form a seal.
[0048] S3. Pressurized oil is introduced into the pressurized oil inlet 17 of the O-ring seal bladder, while the pressurized oil outlet 19 of the O-ring seal bladder is temporarily closed. At this time, the O-ring seal bladder 36 expands due to pressure, causing the top sliding cover 18 to form a seal with the inner wall of the furnace. Pressurized oil is introduced into the pressurized fluid inlet 52 of the sealing system at the bottom, and the sealing pressurization pump 50 pushes the sealing pressurization slider 49 forward to form a seal with the front sliding cover 20.
[0049] S4. Screw the three pressure knobs 11 into the top support arm 9 and into contact with the top sliding cover 18 so that the top sliding cover 18 will not collapse due to excessive pressure during the gasification experiment.
[0050] S5. If the simulated coal seam depth is small, it is sufficient to ensure that the bottom plane of the hydraulic pressurizing pump 39 on the bottom surface of the top sliding cover plate 18 is in contact with the uppermost stratum. The hydraulic pressurizing pump 39 does not need to apply pressure to it. If the simulated coal seam depth is large and it is impossible to make similar physical materials for all strata, pressurizing oil is introduced into the main inlet 43 of the hydraulic pressurizing pump to give pressure to the hydraulic pressurizing pump 39 to pressurize the uppermost stratum, thereby replacing the pressure of the coal seam on the part of the strata that cannot be simulated.
[0051] S6. When the extension and retraction lengths of the four supporting hydraulic rods 56 are not the same, the experimental furnace body will tilt at an angle. Based on the actual coal seam tilt angle data collected, the extension and retraction lengths of the four supporting hydraulic rods 56 are adjusted, and the pointer information of the three levels is constantly observed. After repeating this process multiple times, the tilt angle of the furnace body is made consistent with the actual coal seam tilt angle.
[0052] S7. Use a heating (cooling) device to preheat (precool) the coolant to the same temperature as the coal seam environment, and then inject it into all the liquid cooling boxes through the coolant inlet. Connect the outlet of all the liquid cooling boxes to the heating (cooling) device and repeat the cycle to ensure that the external temperature of the experimental furnace remains constant.
[0053] S8. The pre-mixed gasifying agent (oxygen, high-temperature steam, and inert gas) is pressurized into the furnace body through the gas supply pipeline. The gas supply pipeline is sealed to the gas inlet 5 of the furnace body. After the gasifying agent is introduced for 20 minutes, it is ignited in the coal seam gasification channel near the gas inlet 5. The pressure, temperature, and flow rate of the introduced gasifying agent can be monitored with the help of other instruments (pressure gauge, thermometer, flow meter). A temperature sensor is installed at the gas inlet 5 to monitor the temperature of the coal seam combustion zone in the furnace in real time during the coal gasification process. A gas composition sensor is installed at the gas inlet 5 to monitor the composition and concentration of the introduced gasifying agent in real time during the coal gasification process. At the same time, the gas outlet can be connected to a gas chromatograph to monitor the gas composition in real time. A handheld X-ray imaging detector can be used to monitor the collapse of the coal seam combustion zone inside the furnace body in real time.
[0054] Therefore, this utility model employs the aforementioned simulated coal underground gasification similar physical experimental device for complex burial depths with multiple inclination angles. It can simulate the actual angle of coal seam occurrence. Due to the presence of the top and front sliding cover plates, the combustion chamber of the furnace can be adjusted in size. Furthermore, the hydraulic pressure pump can provide pressure compensation when the coal seam burial depth is large and it is impossible to simulate all strata using similar physical materials. In conjunction with other instruments, this utility model can accurately capture or record various key gasification data from coal underground gasification similar physical experiments, such as gasifying agent temperature, gasifying agent pressure, gasifying agent flow rate, gasifying agent concentration, gas production components, gas production concentration, and the shape and size of the coal seam combustion zone. By analyzing the experimental data, it can determine the optimal composition ratio of the gasifying agent mixture and the optimal gas production components when the combustion zone does not collapse and cause furnace shutdown. This provides theoretical guidance for coal underground gasification production in the area where the experimental coal seam is located.
[0055] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to the technical solution of this utility model, and these modifications or equivalent substitutions cannot cause the modified technical solution to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model.
