Abstract

Aiming at the problems of large deformation and difficult control of the mining roadway water drenching in a thick coal seam, the principle of double-arch zoning cooperative surrounding rock control is studied by using the combined method of theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, and industrial experiment. The water-rock interaction of the surrounding rock of water-drenching roadway is proposed, taking into account the damage to the mechanical parameters of the surrounding rock caused by soaking water. The water-mechanical-damage coupling model for surrounding rock of a coal seam roadway is constructed, and is numerically solved by the code development using the FISH language. The principle of "high prestressed bolt-cable-mesh" zone coordinated control is revealed, and the existence of a compressive stress arch is verified by FLAC3D software. The three support schemes were compared and analyzed by numerical simulation software. We affirmed the bolt length of 2400 mm, spacing of 0.9 m, row spacing of 1 m, cable length of 7300 mm, and arrangement 3-2-3 as the optimal support scheme and applied this scheme in the Zhangcun Coal Mine. The results show that the maximum deformation of the roadway roof is 142 mm, and the ultimate convergence of the two sides is 83 mm. The surrounding rock has been effectively controlled.
