Study on Overburden Strata Rupture Development Height Rules in Repeated Mining of Thick Coal Seams

Abstract:

Take 3 coal repeated mining of Luxi colliery as research background, overburden strata rupture development rules in repeated mining of thick coal seam were studied by using the methods of field measurement. The results indicate that the height of overburden crack belt reduced along with the increase of goaf development time; the crack belt height of upper layer is 34.73m, the ratio of crack height and mining thickness is 15.1, the crack belt height of lower layer increased to 41.51m, but the increased trend declined, the ratio is only 12.14, the development height after up-layer was excavated is 83.6% of the height after two coalface were excavated. The results have important guiding sense for predicting overburden rupture rules in the similar mining conditions and improving the upper limit.
