Research and Application of High Efficiency Pressure Relief Technology for Ultra-high Pressure Hydraulic Slotted Coal Seam

Abstract

In order to solve the technical problem of efficient pressure relief of the impact coal seam, the principle of ultra-high pressure hydraulic slit relief and anti-impact technology is expounded, and the ultra-high pressure hydraulic slit device with working pressure up to 100MPa is selected as the pressure relief equipment of coal seam. The field test of high-efficiency pressure relief by ultra-high pressure hydraulic slotting in impact coal seam was carried out. The test showed that the slotting radius of No.3 coal in Tangkou Mine could reach 1.5m under the condition of 100MPa slotting pressure. The stress variation in seam area and large diameter drilling area is compared and analyzed. The stress in seam area decreases significantly by 40%. The stress of bolt (cable) and the deformation of surrounding rock in the slit area are investigated. Compared with the large-diameter pressure relief area, the increase value of bolt is lower and the increase value of cable is significant in the hydraulic slit test area. The technical benefits of hydraulic slotting and large-diameter drilling are summarized and compared. The engineering quantity of drilling with ultra-high pressure hydraulic slotting is reduced by 60%, and the coal output is 2.5 times of that of large-diameter drilling. The large-diameter drilling provides limited pressure relief space for coal seam, but the ultra-high pressure hydraulic slotting technology can effectively increase the deformation space in the coal body and reduce the elastic energy stored in the coal pillar, so as to achieve a good pressure relief effect. The field test shows that compared with large diameter drilling, ultra-high pressure hydraulic slotting technology has remarkable effects of pressure relief, shock absorption and shock prevention.
