Comparsion Study on Two Methods of Water Inflow Prediction of Coal Mining

Abstract:

Because of the complex geologic space body and the underground seepage conditions, it is difficult to predict groundwater water inflow in prevention and treatment control work of coal mine. To predict the groundwater flow of the coal seam under the roof sandstone aquifer in Nanshan coal, the big water well method and three-dimensional numerical model were used at the same time. The quantity of predicted normal water inflow was 553.5 m³/h by using numerical model and the big-well method is about 591.6 m³/h. The result of big-well methods was relatively close to the result of numerical simulation method, which proved the rationality of the two methods in parameters selection and model building, and greatly improved the reliability and accuracy of prediction results. Compared with large-well method, by establishing the complex 3D geological structure of underground water and fitting the parameters based on the actual data of hydrology, numerical method could simulate the process of groundwater seepage and dewatering engineering, overcome the parameter uncertainty of large-well method, improve the predictive accuracy of the mine water inflow, and has important application value.
