INNOVATIVE approach to air distribution control in mine ventilation network
The results of elaboration up-to-date air distribution control method in the mines. The proposed monitoring system is grounded on integration of air flow sensor readings that are set in mine workings with air distribution determination in “AeroSet” software package. The monitoring system is based on solution the inverse air flow distribution problem in the whole mine ventilation network in terms of air flow sensor readings. As a result, the prediction of air flows in the whole ventilation network, including airways without mounted air flow sensors is accomplished.
