Abstract
This paper discribes a one-dimensional flow model to explain the basic mechanism of coal-gas outbursts. A break-start criterion of coal, as the elementary outburst criterion, is given approximately. In this ideal model, the tectonic pressure before excavation, as a load on coal body, affects the break-start and then the flow field. The flow field is decoupled with the stress field, so that the gas seepage through unbroken coal body, break-start and consequent two-phase flow, and pure gas flow can be analysed independently of the stress field.
