Abstract

Coal and gas outburst is a dynamic phenomenon with violent eruptions of coal and gas from the working coal seam, resulting in economic loss and casualties. It has been proved that rapid desorption within a short period is necessary for occurrence of an outburst. Due to limitation of the present test condition, gas desorption characterization for the first several seconds (0–10s) hasn’t been researched sufficiently. In this study, initial desorption characterization of gas in coal is studied by experiments with methane and carbon dioxide. The most remarkable characteristic of the experimental setup is application of a self-developed real-time data acquisition system with time interval of about 1.6ms, which achieves the goal of collecting enough pressure and temperature data for analysis and calculation. The data is used to study gas pressure variation and calculate initial amount of desorbed gas and initial expansion energy of released gas. From the experimental results, new proof has been found to verify that coal and carbon dioxide outburst is more dangerous than coal and methane outburst.
