TY - JOUR TI - Effect of damage on gas seepage mechanism in coal seam based on a coupled model AU - Xue Yi AU - Cao Zhengzheng AU - Dang Faning AU - Wang Songhe AU - He Mingming AU - Du Feng JN - Thermal Science PY - 2019 VL - 23 IS - 3 SP - 1323 EP - 1328 PT - Article AB - Damage has a significant impact on gas migration in coal seam. In this paper, a coupled hydraulic-mechanical-damage model is established, which takes into account the coupling relationship among coal damage, gas seepage and coal deformation. The simulation results show that the damage of coal body has little effect on seepage characteristic in the initial stage, but the influence of damage on gas seepage is increasing with the increase of time. Both the distribution of gas pressure and the gas adsorption content of coal body have a significant change.
