On this basis, the paper proposes a simple and efficient evaluation method for mine cooling system. The first index of this method is the air temper- ature at point C which is 15 m away from the return wind corner at working face. A cooling system will be judged ineligible if the air temperature at point C is above 30 ℃ during operation, because in this case, the combustible gases in coal will sharply overflow, inducing gas incidents. Based on the preliminary judg- ment of the first index, another two evaluation indexes are proposed based on the cooling ability and dehumidification of an airflow volume of 1000 m3/min at point C to evaluate the investment and opera- tion cost of mine cooling system. This evaluation method has already been successfully applied in the cooling system design of Zhangshuanglou coal mine.展开更多
