6/1/2010 - Conference papersIn this paper instrumentation and sampling strategies for accurate monitoring of airflow in an entry using two-axis and three-axis ultrasonic anemometers are evaluated.
-
2/1/2009 - Conference papersThis paper discusses the current ventilation practices regarding the use of belt air during gateroad development and longwall panel extraction.
-
2/1/2009 - Conference papersThis paper discusses some ways to find extra usable air when there is no extra ventilation capacity.
-
10/1/2008 - Conference papersThis paper describes the performance of LED and incandescent sources in cap lamps in terms of correlated color temperature, color rendering, light output, electric power, ambient temperature and airflow, and light source aging.

2/1/2007 - Conference papersThe fact that methane ignitions continue to occur at the mining face indicates that monitoring with machine-mounted methanometers does not always indicate the presence of high methane concentrations. Methane concentrations at the face change quickly du...

6/1/2006 - Conference papersFive mine fire experiments were conducted in a 2.08-m-high, 2.90-m-wide ventilated mine entry in NIOSH's Safety Research Coal Mine to determine the effect of the dispersion of carbon monoxide (CO) on mine fire detection.
