Abstract:Heat injection is essential for oil shale in-situ conversion technology. The downhole of the heat injection well reaches temperatures above 400 • C during the process of heat injection, and part of the high-temperature gas dissipates through the wellbore annulus. Consequently, in addition to causing energy loss, the dissipation causes thermal damage to the casing and wellhead. To avoid dissipation, components that are suitable for high-temperature environments should be sealed and used during heat injection wh… Show more
“…The above control methods have all achieved good support effects in their respective projects, but the support is still mainly axial control, with insufficient consideration given to tangential control of the support structure. During the process of deformation and failure of the surrounding rock, lateral displacement and shear expansion of the surrounding rock are very common phenomena, 32,33 resulting in frequent breakage of anchor bolts and cables. Therefore, the research team has invented a new type of support structure called “Anchor Cable with C‐shaped Tube (ACC)”, which not only ensures the high axial bearing capacity of the support components, but also significantly improves the tangential bearing capacity 34–36 .…”
To improve the extraction of coal resources, gob‐side entry driving is gradually being promoted and applied. However, as the thickness of the coal seam increases, the deformation control of the roadway becomes more difficult. Aiming at this problem, a combination of theoretical calculation, numerical simulation, and field test was used to analyze the aspects of the stress environment, surrounding rock properties, and support forms. The phenomenon and mechanization of intensified deformation and failure of roadway with increasing coal seam thickness were revealed. The specific results include: (1) The ratio of principal stress at the excavation position controls the maximum failure depth of roadway, and the direction of principal stress determines the location of the maximum failure depth; (2) As the thickness of the coal seam increases, the properties of the surrounding rock at the excavation position decrease, the principal stress ratio increases, and the deflection angle of the principal stress increases, which lead to an intensification of the deformation and failure of the roadway. Based on the deformation and failure characteristics of the roadway and the shortcomings of the original support form, a control strategy and support scheme based on a new support structure called “Anchor Cable with C‐shaped Tube” is proposed, which has achieved better deformation control effect in on‐site application.
