Abstract
Coal oxidation in the goaf generates heat accumulation influenced by airflow, leading to heat transfer within the porous coal structure. This study experimentally investigates the heat transfer characteristics of coal under convective conditions. A temperature migration rate measurement device was developed, and a formula for calculating the temperature migration rate was derived using the steady-state heat conduction differential equation and experimental data. The study examines the effects of temperature and airflow on the temperature migration rate and heat transfer characteristics. The experimental results indicate that the heat transfer effect of coal at low temperatures is minimal and volatile. As the temperature increases, efficiency improves, and heat transfer stabilizes. Airflow facilitates coal's heat transfer, causing the temperature generated by coal oxidation to concentrate on the downwind side. Additionally, airflow inhibits coal oxidation at low temperatures, while high temperatures promote it. Furthermore, the temperature migration rate of coal decreases with increasing temperature, initially decreases and then increases with rising airflow at low temperatures, whereas the opposite trend is observed at high temperatures.
