Abstract
Coal seam water injection has a significant effect on downhole dust resistance. However, during the operation of coal seam water injection, the seepage of the solution in the coal fractures is impacted by the roughness of coal fractures. Therefore, in this study, distilled water and a sodium lauryl sulfate surfactant were used as seepage solutions, kennel coal was used as the research subject, and four coal samples with different roughness coefficients were prepared for seepage experiments. After the analysis and discussion of the experimental results, it is found that the surface roughness of coal fractures hinders the seepage effect of coal seam water injection. The greater the surface roughness of coal fractures, the smaller the permeability coefficient. Furthermore, increasing the injection pressure and fracture aperture can reduce the influence of coal fracture surface roughness on the permeability coefficient. In addition, after sodium lauryl sulfate is added, the permeability coefficient of the coal sample is reduced. This further reveals the seepage of water injection into coal seams and provides certain guidance for the development of coal seam water injection technology.
