A preliminary study on selected methods of modeling the effect of shearer operation on methane propagation and ventilation at longwalls

Underground coal mining frequently uses longwalls. The occurrence of a potentially explosive mixture of methane and air is one of the most serious hazards. A large number of papers have applied numerical modeling of methane propagation in research aimed at this problem. To date, none of the CFD simu...
