Abstract:The experimental study of heat and mass transfer in the atmosphere of a skip shaft of a Gypsum mine was carried out during the summer and winter seasons. The air flow overturning was observed in the winter season due to the ingress of cold heavy air from the surface into the shaft space. To analyze this phenomenon, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of heat and mass transfer processes in a mine shaft was developed, considering the vertical temperature gradient, roughness of the shaft walls, heat exchan… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
