Abstract:
According to the volatile combustion, the mathematical and physical models on the volatilization combustion of coal field fire area are established. The governing equations are analyzed by analytic method. The parameters such as volatilization combustion speed, the content of volatile component and the flame temperature are obtained at relatively high temperature environment. According to the solutions, the flame temperature of the volatilization combustion is calculated by the heat insulation temperature in the light of the low-heat value of the volatile component. Due to the free or forced convection in the actual fire area, the true temperature would be lower than the calculation. Through experiment, heating process takes the greatest impact on the heating surface but least on inner parts. The temperature is increased and the heating surface temperature will exceed the temperature and continue increasing, which indicates that the coal begins oxidation. While the airflow is increased, the temperature will be slightly increased. The temperature is descent more slightly in the coal temperature because of thermal radiation.
