TY - JOUR TI - Research on the propagation of pressure and CO gas of methane and coal dust coupled explosion AU - Jing Guoxun AU - Peng Le AU - Mu Lulu JN - Thermal Science PY - 2022 VL - 26 IS - 5 SP - 3859 EP - 3867 PT - Article AB - A methane and coal dust explosion system was constructed to investigate the propagation of pressure and CO gas after methane and coal dust coupling explosion. The influence of coal dust concentration on the propagation of pressure and CO gas were analyzed by coupling explosion experiments of 5% methane with coal dust (0, 100 g/m3, 200 g/m3, 300 g/m3, 400 g/m3, and 500 g/m3), 7% methane with coal dust (0, 50 g/m3, 100 g/m3, 150 g/m3, and 200 g/m3), and 9% methane with coal dust (0, 50 g/m3, 100 g/m3, 150 g/m3, and 200 g/m3). The experimental results show that when 5% or 7% methane explodes with coal dust in the explosion chamber, the pressure first increases and then decreases with the increase of coal dust concentration. When the methane concentration is 9%, the pressure decreases with the increase of coal dust concentration. In the propagation pipe, the explosion pressure and CO gas concentration decrease with the increase of distance. When the methane concentration and distance are constant, the higher the coal dust concentration is, the higher the pressure and CO gas concentration is.
