Study on the Factors Affecting Gas Permeability of Coal

In this paper,the permeability of coal from Nantong colliery is studied in a labo-ratory. The effects of desorbed gas temperature and water content on gas permeability were investi-gated. The results of experiments indieatd that decreasing gas pressure without desorption , the permeability of coal decreases, However, below the desorption pressure, the permeability of coal formethane increases, The reaults suggest that the logarithm of permeability of coal is a linear functionof the temperature and the permeability of coal saturated with water is lass than the permeability ofdry coal; with the increase of water content, the permeability of coal for methane is increasing.
