Abstract

This study focuses on the seismic safety of distributed underground reservoirs in coal mines, especially in scenarios involving the establishment of multiple reservoirs within the same mining area, spanning different coal seams. Dynamic similarity model tests and numerical simulations are employed to investigate the construction and operation of these reservoirs under extreme conditions, such as mine tremors or earthquakes. Utilizing the Daliuta coal mine underground reservoir as a case study, a similarity material model test platform is established to represent both upper and lower coal mine underground reservoirs. Stability tests are conducted on the interlayer rock mass under various levels of seismic intensity, and the safety of the interlayer rock mass at different safety distances is comparatively analyzed. Meanwhile, using the finite element method, the responses of the upper and lower coal mine underground reservoirs under different seismic intensity levels are simulated with the same conditions of model tests. Through the two types of simulations, the mechanical response and safety of the surrounding rock of the Daliuta coal mine underground reservoir under the influence of different seismic intensities are systematically analyzed, and the reasonable safety distances between the upper and lower reservoirs are obtained. This study provides a valuable scientific insight into the safe design of underground reservoir embankments in coal mines.
