5/1/2016 - Peer reviewed journal articlesA study that describes the computer modeling of how carbon monoxide moves through an underground mine ventilation network during a fire event.
-
3/1/2016 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis article by NIOSH describes a series of full-scale experiments that evaluated an atmospheric monitoring system for fire detection in other areas of a coal mine.
-
1/1/2016 - Peer reviewed journal articlesAn article detailing the results of a study on leakage rates of coal bed gas through underground coal mine seals at a western U.S. underground coal mine.
-
5/1/2015 - Peer reviewed journal articlesA report detailing the reults a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model that was developed to simulate the interaction between the ventilation airflow, the belt flame spread, and the water spray system in a mine entry.
-
1/1/2012 - Peer reviewed journal articlesIn this study, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling was conducted to optimize gas sampling locations for the early detection of spontaneous heating in longwall gob areas.
-
9/1/2011 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis paper presents technical and application aspects of a new software suite, MCP (Methane Control and Prediction), developed for addressing some of the methane and methane control issues in longwall coal mines.
-
3/1/2010 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis work presents a fractal porous medium model to predict gob porosity and permeability for controlling methane flow and to predict air leakage into the gob.
-
1/1/2010 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis paper discusses some ways to find extra usable air when there is no extra ventilation capacity.
-
1/1/2009 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis paper discusses air quality concerns and methods to improve the ventilation of large-opening mines whose entries are at least 93m2 (1,000 ft2).
-
9/1/2008 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis study presents a reservoir modeling approach to investigate the relative effects of different coalbed parameters on the migration of methane into development entries, and shows that this technique can be applicable to different coalbeds.
