According to the characteristics of coal-rock dynamic disasters and hydraulic slotting, the mechanism of dynamic load barrier and static load pressure relief in hydraulic slotting is proposed. The stress distribution in a coal mining face and the slotted area of a section coal pillar is analyzed by numerical simulation. The results show that the slot formed by hydraulic slotting can effectively alleviate the stress concentration and transfer the high-stress area to a deeper coal seam. When slotting and blocking the dynamic load propagation path in a coal seam, the wave intensity of the stress wave transmitted into the slot is greatly reduced, so the risk of a coal-rock dynamic disaster is reduced. A field application of hydraulic slotting prevention technology was carried out in the Hujiahe coal mine. An investigation of microseismic events and an evaluation of the rock noise system show that the average event energy within 100 m mining mileage decreased by 18%, the microseismic energy per unit footage decreased by 37%, the times of strong mine pressure behavior evaluated in the working face decreased by 17%, and the number of risks decreased by 89%. In conclusion, hydraulic slotting technology can effectively reduce the risk of coal-rock dynamic disasters in mining faces and provides a more effective technical means for coal-rock dynamic disaster prevention.

Study of hydraulic cutting as a method to prevent coal burst disasters.

State Key Laboratory of Hydraulics and Mountain River Engineering, College of Water Resource & Hydropower, Sichuan University, Chengdu, 610065, PR China.

This study explores the causes of coal bursts in the Xinzhou Kiln Mine, identifying key factors such as residual pillars, hard coal seams and/or roofs, stress concentration due to complex geological structures, and the stress distribution characteristics of the primary rock. A significant finding is that hydraulic cutting not only diminishes and redistributes the stress concentration region inside the coal seam but also mitigates the burst potential of the coal-rock mass, fundamentally reducing the likelihood of coal bursts. By taking Face No.

Developing managed aquifer recharge (MAR) to augment irrigation water resources in the sand and gravel (Crag) aquifer of coastal Suffolk, UK.

J Environ Manage

Growth, Highways and Infrastructure, Suffolk County Council, Endeavour House, Russell Road, Ipswich, IP1 2BX, UK.

Managed aquifer recharge (MAR) offers a potential innovative solution for addressing groundwater resource issues, enabling excess surface water to be stored underground for later abstraction. Given its favourable hydrogeological properties, the Pliocene sand and gravel (Crag) aquifer in Suffolk, UK, was selected for a demonstration MAR scheme, with the goal of supplying additional summer irrigation water. The recharge source was a 4.

Key Laboratory of Deep Earth Science and Engineering (MOE), Sichuan University, Chengdu 610065, China.

The fracture toughness of shale is a key parameter guiding hydraulic fracturing design and optimization. The hollow double-wing slotted (HDWS) specimen is a typical specimen configuration for measuring the mode I fracture toughness of rock. The calibration of the shape factor () is the basis for accurately obtaining the fracture toughness of rocks.

Numerical Modeling of Head Losses in Different Types of Well Screens.

Ground Water

November 2022

Roscoe Moss Company, 4360 Worth Street, Los Angeles, California, 90063, USA.

Quantifying total well loss through well screens has been traditionally undertaken through experimentally based empirical equations or equations derived for water flow through (circular) orifices. Advances in computer capacity enables incorporation of CFD formulations at millimeter scale, coupling Darcy flow and Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) to better understand and quantify processes related to well loss for different screen types. This study provides a methodology of quantifying well screen head loss using numerical models, coupling Darcy flow (aquifer and filter/gravel pack) with turbulent flow (in-well and through screen) at a sub-millimeter scale.
