Abstract

With the increase of mining depth, an investigation of the convective heat transfer of airflow in deep airway is urgently required. The velocity and temperature distribution were derived by using the turbulence model for smooth tube. In order to simplify calculation and avoid the complicated calculation of integration, with the help of velocity-temperature distribution analogy, the criterion equation of convective heat transfer was obtained by using the model of constant heat flux. The coefficient of convective heat transfer between airflow and airway was calculated, and criterion correlation of convective heat transfer was regressed according to test data. Test results show that the axial temperature distribution of airflow is linear, which is encouraging agreement with theoretical calculating results. Hence model of constant heat flux is a viable method for studying the convective heat transfer of airflow in deep airway.
