| الوصف: | Abstract Coal seam degasification by in‐seam drilling borehole is one of the popular techniques for coal mine methane (CMM) control. How to address the conflict between borehole numbers and drainage durations always arouses researchers’ interests. Furthermore, since coal has anisotropy structures, how the anisotropy feature of coal associated with bedding and cleat structure affects the influence radius of the drainage borehole has rarely been considered. In order to address the above‐mentioned issues, this work not only conducted underground in‐situ measurement of the borehole influence radius within 200 days in an anisotropy coal seam at Jiulishan coal mine in China, but also modeled the influence radius evolvement around borehole in an anisotropy coal seam using finite‐element based COMSOL package. The underground in‐situ measurement revealed an anisotropy feature of borehole influence radius associated with coal bedding and cleat structures. The influence radius of borehole parallel to the bedding plane in butt cleat direction is much larger than that perpendicular to the bedding plane. Ten permeability measurements of coal show that the permeability of coal parallel to the bedding plane in butt cleat direction is higher than that perpendicular to the bedding plane. Simulation results of the gas transport model in coal are consistent with underground in‐situ measurement in determining the influence radius of drainage borehole in the anisotropy coal seam. Based on modeling results, the ellipse influence area of borehole in an anisotropy coal seam is proposed, and the relationship between the influence radius of borehole and drainage time is obtained. On the basis of these findings, the proper in‐seam borehole arrangements for a specific mining panel at different drainage durations are determined. The finding of this work will be fundamental for addressing the conflict between minimizing the cost of borehole arrangement and increasing coal mining productions by adjusting CMM drainage durations. |
