1 Introduction
China is a large country in coal mines, and coal has an important role in economic development in my country (Huang et al. 2021; Li et al. 2020a; Wang et al. 2020a). Coal energy is closely related to our lives, and is an indispensable substance foundation for social and economic development (Zhang et al. 2021a; Wang et al. 2020b; Fu and Wang 2020). In my country's primary performance source structure, oil and natural gas storage is very small, in contrast (Zhao and Fu 2020; Wang et al. 2020c; Zhu et al. 2019; Cheng et al. 2020), the coal reserves are very large, although my country has vigorously developed new energy in recent years, but the status of coal energy main body will not change within a period of time (Zhu and Teng 2021; Zuo et al. 2019; Zhang et al. 2021a, 2019; Li and Wang 2020; Hu et al. 2020). "Energy Development Strategic Action Plan (2014–2020)" pointed out that by 2020 (Xu and Gao 2020; Yang et al. 2020a; Xia et al. 2020; Wang et al. 2020d; Ren 2020), the total energy consumption of energy consumption was around 4.8 billion tons of standard coal, and the total coal consumption was controlled around 4.2 billion tons, of which coal accounted for one energy proportion (Su et al. 2020; Wang 2019; Yang et al. 2020b; Xu et al. 2019). It is 62%. This can be seen that my country's energy or coal is mainly coal in a quite long time in the future (Zhang et al. 2021a; Gao 2019; Chen et al. 2021; Li et al. 2021).
After the coal resource was taken, the coal seam of coal seams affected by the pilot field was called a moblite (Kang 2020; Jia and Hu 2020; Jiang et al. 2021). After the coal seam mining, the overclocking layer will have a movement, breaking phenomenon, and there is a fissure. The fracture can be divided into vertically breaking fracture, and the rock layer is alleviated by its nature (Zhang et al. 2020b, 2021a; Yu et al. 2021; Ma et al. 2020). The distribution of cracking fractures is not only important for mine water damage governance and the protection of water resources, but also has an important role in gas disaster prevention and coalbed methane resource development (Liu et al. 2020; Zhang et al. 2021b; Chen 2020; Cai 2020). Coal-grade top plate rocky "two bands" developmental height and the distribution of the fracture are very complex, and the geological characteristics of the coal-coating engineering, coal seam mining thickness and coal mining methods. Currently, the "two band" heights are more, there is formula method, material detectance, and drilling method (Bi et al. 2020; Wang et al. 2021; Qie et al. 2021; Pan et al. 2020). The "two band" calculation formula in the "Three Coal Regulations" is only applicable to coal seams that are thin and medium and thickly laminated, and it is not suitable for overall mining and high thick coal seams (Wang and Wang 2021; Li and Du 2020; Kang 2021; Gao 2021; Fu and Wang 2020).
Fully mechanized caving mining has become the main coal mining method for medium and thick coal seams in China (Cai et al. 2020; Zhang and Wang 2020; Li et al. 2020b). The complexity and dynamic invisibility of the overlying rock activity process during the mining of fully mechanized caving mining face brings difficulties to coal production, and similar simulation tests can be intuitive The whole process of overburden deformation (Hou et al. 2020; Fan 2020), movement and fracture during the mining process was one of the methods to deeply understand the failure and crack evolution of the overburden in fully mechanized caving mining, and can more accurately determine the "two zones" of the overburden after mining (Chai et al. 2020a; Chen et al. 2020). The development height and the evolution process of fissures provide important theoretical basis for mine water disaster prevention and gas prevention (Zhang et al. 2021c; Chai et al. 2020b; Zhang et al. 2020a).
For the similar simulation study of overburden failure due to mining, Zhai (2002) simulated the movement of overburden under fully mechanized caving mining in Yima Changcun Coal Mine, studied the changes in the level of caving zone and fracture zone, and revealed the "masonry The "beam" structure develops towards high-rise level; Zhang and Hou (2007) conducted an experimental study on the movement of the roof of the first mining face in Nanliang Coal Mine, the compression strength, and the deformation and failure of the roadway, and summarized the overburden movement in the thick soil layer and shallow coal seam. The failure law, and proposed to strengthen the support to prevent the roof collapse in a large area, provides a necessary basis for the realization of the normal mining of thick soil layer and shallow coal seam.
The above-mentioned scholars have conducted similar simulation studies on the overburden rock caused by mining, mainly from the development height of the "two belts" of the overburden rock, the characteristics of surface movement, and the stress changes in the stope. However, there was no further study on the evolution of cracks during the advancement of the working face. Coal Mining S1202 working face was the test face, and similar simulation research was carried out on the height of the overlying rock "two zones", subsidence characteristics, stress field changes, and fracture evolution during mining.
2 Engineering Situation
The designed production capacity of Yuwu Coal Mine of Lu'an Group was 6Mt/a, and the main coal seam was 3#. The average thickness of the coal seam in the S1202 working face of the simulation test was 6.15 m, and the average mining depth was 412 m. It was a near-level coal seam and adopts fully mechanized caving mining. The mining ratio was 1:0.92. The working surface has four roadway, gas emission roadway, return airway, belt transportation, intake airway (the layout is shown in Fig. 1). Roof features: (1) The direct roof was sandy mudstone with a thickness of about 5.65 m; (2) The basic roof was fine-grained sandstone and siltstone with a thickness of about 11.2 m, and there are staggered joints.
3 Similarity Simulation Experiment
3.1 Test Equipment
According to the purpose of this test, a stress test bench was used, the size of the test bench was 3300 mm × 1800 mm × 300 mm (length × width × height), as shown in Fig. 2, and the rock mechanics parameters are shown in Table 1.
3.2 Proportional Similarity
According to the similarity test principle and the actual situation of the S1202 working face, the similarity ratio was determined, and the details are as follows:
-
(1)
Geometric similarity coefficient: \(C_{l} = L_{M} /L_{H} = 1/200\), Among them, \(C_{l}\) was the geometric similarity ratio, \(L_{M}\) and \(L_{H}\) are the length of the model and prototype respectively.
-
(2)
Time similarity coefficient: \(C_{t} = T_{M} /T_{H} = \sqrt {C_{l} } = 1:14.1\), In order to accurately grasp the time during excavation, take 1/12, where \(C_{t}\) was the time similarity ratio, \(T_{M}\) was the model process time, and \(T_{H}\) was the prototype process time.
-
(3)
Similarity coefficient of bulk density: \(C_{\gamma } = \gamma _{M} /\gamma _{H} = 3:5\), Among them, \(C_{\gamma }\) was the bulk density similarity ratio, \(\gamma _{M}\) model bulk density, and \(\gamma _{H}\) prototype bulk density.
-
(4)
Similarity coefficient of elastic modulus: \(C_{E} = E_{M} /E_{H} = C_{l} C_{\gamma } {\text{ = 3/1000}}\), Among them, \(C_{E}\) was the elastic modulus similarity ratio, \(E_{M}\) was the model elastic modulus, and \(E_{H}\) was the prototype elastic modulus.
-
(5)
Strength similarity coefficient: \(C_{\sigma } = \sigma _{M} /\sigma _{H} = C_{l} C_{\gamma }\), Among them, \(C_{\sigma }\) was the uniaxial compressive strength similarity ratio, \(\sigma _{M}\) was the model uniaxial compressive strength, and \(\sigma _{H}\) was the prototype uniaxial compressive strength.
The test model uses fine sand as aggregate and gypsum and lime as cementing materials. According to the similarity ratio, the physical and mechanical parameters of the similar model and the ratio of similar materials are shown in Tables 2 and 3.
3.3 Observation Point Arrangement and Observation Method
The displacement and stress measuring point layout was shown in Fig. 3.
Four effective displacement observation lines and one stress observation line are arranged in the overburden of the coal roof. The displacement line observes the breakage of the overburden of the coal roof, and the stress line observes the change of the overburden stress during the mining process. In the experiment, an electronic total station was used to observe the displacement line.
Electronic total station is a high-tech measuring instrument integrating lighting, machine, and electricity. It is a synthetic angle, vertical angle, distance, high-profile measurement function in a surveying instrument system. Comparing the optical coiler to compare the electropolite to the photoelectric scanning disc, the artificial optical micrograph generation is automatically recorded and displayed, so that the angular operation is simplified, and the generation of reading errors can be avoided. All measurement work on the station can be completed due to its resettlement instrument.
Its test principle is to provide a spectroscopic prism system between the telephoto objective and the focus lens, and the multi-function of the telescope is achieved by the system, that is, aiming at the target, making it imaged on a cross wire plate, angular measurement, and it is measured The outer light path system of the distance can also cause a modulated infrared light emitted by the photosensitive diode of the ranging portion to the reflective prism in the substrate lens. Reflected by the same path, then the substantial prism is used to receive the backlight by the photodiode, and the ranging needs to have another inner optical path system inside the instrument, and the optical fibers in the spectroscope system will be transmitted by the photodiode. Infrared light transmission also given to the photodiode reception, performing the phase difference between the inner and outer light path modulated light, calculates the propagation time, calculating the measured distance.
Yuwu Coal Industry S1202 face production was 9 cuts per day, and each cut was 0.8 m. According to the time similarity ratio, the model simulates the actual coal intake of 1.8 cm/h.
4 Test Process and Analysis of Results
4.1 "Two Zones" Damage Height
Figure 4 shows the development process of overlying strata "two zones" during the mining process of the working face. After the working face was mined, the overlying rock near the coal wall begins to move. When the working face advances 90 m, the old roof breaks for the first time and the overlying rock was separated; when the working face advances to 120 m, the old roof collapses for the first time and its covering Rock fissures are developed; when the working face advances to 190 m, the goaf was gradually compacted and the pressure rises; when the working face advances to 240 m, the middle of the goaf was completely compacted, the cracks are closed, and a sinking basin was formed. According to the histogram of S1202 working face of Yuwu Coal Industry, the dynamic development height of the overlying rock "two zones" was shown in Table 4.
4.2 Analysis of the Highest Fracture Location and Collapse Height
For the prevention and control of mine water and gas disasters, it was necessary not only to study the distribution of the overburden fissure field during mining, but also to study the overburden collapse of the coal seam roof and the dynamic changes of the separation height during the advancement of the working face, so as to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the mining face The evolution of the cracks and the gas migration and accumulation patterns in the process. Figure 5 shows the relationship between the advancing distance of the working face and the highest position of the crack and the height of the collapse.
It can be seen from Fig. 4 that the development of separation cracks and broken fractures are not completely synchronized with the rock movement, and they develop nonlinearly from bottom to top. The separated cracks develop faster than broken fractures. When the working face advances to about 170 m, the cracks develop the height of the coal seam was about 75 m. Every time the working face advances by 6–10 m on average, the range of the overlying strata will increase, and the position of the overlying strata will increase, and the breakage and collapse of the coal roof overlying strata are particularly obvious.
4.3 The Deformation Law of Overlying Strata in Stope
In order to visually analyze the movement and deformation laws of the overburden strata of the stope, the advancement distance of the working face and the movement variation of the overburden strata are placed in the same coordinate system, and the variation curve of the displacement variation with the working face was shown in Fig. 6.
From Fig. 6, the subsidence curve of the overlying strata at different advancing distances shows that the overlying strata was in a state of original stress balance when the coal seam was not mined. When coal resources are mined, the overlying strata above the goaf undergoes elasticity to shape The state changes, with the continuous advancement of the working face, the overlying strata moves, breaks and collapses, forming the "three zones" of the overlying strata (breakdown zone, fissure zone, and bending subsidence zone), and the subsidence of the overburden strata was nonlinear, Movement was asymmetry; due to the different strengths, thicknesses, bedding development, and joint development of each layer of the overburden, the movement and movement of each rock layer are asynchronous, and the group movement characteristics of the key layers are mainly coordinated. With the advancement of the working face, the development height of the overburden caving zone and fissure zone gradually rises. When the working face advances for a certain distance, the height remains basically unchanged. The overburden (except the caving zone) experienced during coal mining a continuous and dynamic process of sinking and moving. The movement of the far coal seam was more obvious, and the movement curve shape was similar to that of the ground. The near-coal rock layer, when the overburden straddles, the sinking curve was more irregular.
4.4 Stress Distribution of Overlying Strata in Stope
During the advancing process of the working face, the stress of the overburden rock mass of the coal seam roof goes through three stages of pressure increase before mining, pressure relief after mining, and pressure stabilization recovery. The observation of the stress of the roof overburden reveals the behavior of the stress in the goaf during the mining process. The overburden failure characteristics, the supporting pressure distribution curve when the working face was mined at 90 m and 240 m are shown in Fig. 7.
It can be seen from the Fig. 7 that during the coal mining process, the abutment pressure has a larger range of influence, with a higher peak value. The peak value was 75 m away from the working face. The stress was lower in the range of 0–50 m behind the working face, forming a stress reduction zone. The stress rises slowly in the range of 50–100 m behind the working face, forming a stable zone of supporting pressure, because the gangue was gradually compacted by the roof. Under different mining depths, the greater the mining depth, the smaller the concentration of support pressure. Because the surrounding rock was fractured and softened under high stress, the high-stress area becomes wider, and the internal stress field becomes wider with the increase in mining depth.
5 Quantitative Analysis of Fracture Development of Mining Overburden
Mining fissures are not only of great significance for mine water disasters and water resources protection, but also play an important role in gas disaster prevention and coalbed methane development. Therefore, the inclination, width, number and height of overburden cracks are quantified after they are fully mined. According to analysis, Fig. 8 shows a developed crack in the overlying rock after mining.
5.1 Distribution of Fracture Dip Angle
After fully mining, there are 34 mining fissures in the entire overburden, with different inclination angles of the fissures. Figure 9 shows the distribution curve based on the inclination of the fissures.
It can be seen from the distribution curve of fracture dip angle and quantity in Fig. 9 that among the 34 fractures after fully mining, 6 fractures with dip angle less than 30 account for 17.65% of all fractures, 8 fractures with dip angle of 30–39 account for 23.53% of all fractures, and 9 fractures with dip angle of 40–49 account for 26.47% of all fractures with dip angle of 50 It accounts for 11.76% of all fractures, including 2 fractures with dip angle of 60–69, 5.880%, 3 fractures with dip angle of 70–79, 8.830%, and 2 fractures with dip angle of 80–90, accounting for 5.880% of all fractures.
5.2 Distribution of Crack Width
The crack width reflects the degree of crack development. Under mining, the crack development width near the coal seam was larger. Figure 10 shows the distribution curve based on the crack width.
Figure 10 shows that there are 6 cracks with width less than 1 mm, accounting for 17.65% of all cracks, 9 cracks with width of 1–1.9 mm, accounting for 26.47%, 11 cracks with width of 2–2.9 mm, accounting for 32.35% of all cracks, and 7 cracks with width of 3–3.9 mm, accounting for 20.59% of all cracks.
5.3 Number of Fractures and Overburden Height
The change characteristics of the height of the overburden and the number of fractures reflect the degree of the overburden affected by mining. Figure 11 shows the relationship between the number of mining cracks and the height of the overlying strata.
It can be seen from Fig. 11 that the coal seams at close distances are greatly affected by mining, so there are a large number of cracks, which are mainly concentrated in the overburden about 90 m.
5.4 Distribution of Mining Fractures
In order to visually describe the development of mining fractures, the fracture density (bars/m) was used to represent the development of fractures. According to the experimental data, the curve of fracture density at different advance distances was shown in Fig. 12.
Figure 12 shows the crack density distribution curve of the overburden: during the mining process, the overburden moves, breaks, collapses, and develops into three stages:
-
(1)
Within about 60 m, the roof overburden changes from elastic deformation to plastic deformation, failure and instability until the cracks transition, the number and width of the cracks increase simultaneously in the process.
-
(2)
With the continuous advancement of the working face, the mining fissures develop to the high level. When pushed to a certain distance, the mined-out area was compacted by the roof overlying rock, and the density decreases rapidly.
-
(3)
In the area near the coal wall, due to the supporting effect, the crack density was still high.
6 Conclusions
-
(1)
A similar simulation study was carried out on a fully mechanized caving mining face with large mining height and composite roof of Yuwu Coal Industry, and it was concluded that the height of the caving zone was 32.6 m and the height of the fracture zone was 64.6 m.
-
(2)
The width of the mining cracks in the overburden of the coal seam roof was mainly medium width, and the inclination angle was mainly the middle angle, and the number of cracks gradually decreases with distance from the coal seam. In this area, the density curve of overlying rock fractures was in a "wave" shape.
