Introduction

In the coal mines of Ukraine with the increase of mining depth increases gas content of coal workings, the intensity and frequency of gas-dynamic manifestations of sudden methane emissions, which leads to increased risk in mining operations. Therefore, in such circumstances the need for retrofitting coal mines with new control systems in the concentration of gas components of high performance.


    Relevance of the topic

The reasons for the large number of accidents, in particular methane and dust explosions can be explained by the lack of reliability of the existing controls of methane in the mine workings. Methods and Means, which exist today, do not provide the necessary speed and accuracy required for measuring concentration of methane in the atmosphere of coal mines. The methane analyzer should be low-inertia with a wide dynamic range and insensitive to the influence of the main factors disturbing atmosphere of the mine the coal mines. Therefore, you need a detailed study and develop ways to improve performance at the required accuracy of control of methane concentration with compensation for the impact of major destabilizing factors in the mine atmosphere of coal mines [1].

 The purpose of the study

 The purpose of increasing the speed measuring devices based on the concentration of methane thermocatalytic method using an algorithmic hardware redundancy.

 

The main objectives of the study:  

The object of study:  measuring system controls the concentration of methane in the atmosphere of coal mines.

 

The choice of a control object

More sophisticated methods of measurement based on the use of equipment with sensors that produce an electronic signal proportional to the content of methane in the gas. These devices are more accurate and can be used in automation systems.

        However, the most accurate and efficient way to get results is to use modern electronic devices - gas analyzers, permitting real-time with high accuracy all the necessary parameters of the process, fix them and make quick changes in the mode of installation to achieve maximum efficiency [3].
        Methane detector SMM1 is designed for continuous monitoring of methane in the atmosphere, coal mines, dangerous on gas.
        The action alarm methane CMM1 is based on the principle of using thermocatalytic low-temperature point of sensitive items.
        Functional diagram of the HMM1 signaling is shown in Figure 1, where as a standalone power source used in a battery is sealed batteries, consisting of two batteries NKGK3C.The voltage stabilizer 2 serves for stabilization of supply voltage of the converter 3 and the bridge measuring scheme 5 with sensors 6 entering into it and a methane 7 measuring instrument.  Converter 3 is a source of high voltage for the phase-sensitive amplifier 8 and 9 of the alarm. Controlling the degree of battery discharge battery voltage control unit performs 4.

        Operation is as follows. The sensor consists of compensation and working sensors included in the roadway shoulders measuring circuit converts the change in the concentration of methane in the electrical signal, which is the constant component from the output of the bridge measuring circuit is fed to the methane analyzer, calibrated in % CH4 with a range of 03%, and the variable component  the input of the phase-sensitive amplifier [2].

 

Animation Process

On coal mines of Ukraine a long period stationary continuously operating control devices of the mine atmosphere [8] are successfully maintained:

 • methane AT1-1, AT3-1 and ATB analyzers;

• analyzers of oxide of Sigma-SO-V carbon and DOW.

     To receive a continuous signal on the volume fraction of methane and digital signals on the achievement of the maximum permissible concentration in the field of the sensors analyzers AT series recording the volume fraction of methane and issue audible and visual alarm on the surface of the coal mines are used counter data received SPI1M, electronic recorders, "Econ "or set of information aerogas Kagi.

 

        Findings. To create a gas analyzer for coal mines is necessary to consider the composition, the parameters of the mine atmosphere, the requirements of regulatory documents. The study of systems aerogas control in coal mines, the issues of construction of gas analyzers and their specifications. As a result of detailed study and developed ways to improve performance at the required accuracy of control of methane concentration with compensation for the impact of major destabilizing factors in the mine atmosphere, coal mines. The way of dynamic error compensation method for measuring thermocatalytic methane for coal mines. Using this method allows to increase the probability of detection and control of explosive concentrations of methane in coal mines.
