Abstract:
Mine main fan switchover system (MMFSS) is crucial for the mine safe production. MMFSS consists of two main fans (one working and one on standby), and each main fan is equipped with a vertical air door and a horizontal air door. The main purpose of MMFSS is to ensure the stability of the underground airflow quantity and achieve the satisfactory ventilation during the switchover. Moreover, the safe and economic operation of mine production should be ensured. In this paper, the modeling and control problem of MMFSS is considered. First, based on the theory of fluid flow network, the minimal model of MMFSS is built by combining the branch fluid dynamics with the concept of graph theory. Then, a decentralized controller that fully considers the pressure head regulation of two main fans is developed by the Lyapunov stability theory. The controller can ensure that the four air doors can meet with the technological requirements. Finally, the proposed results are conformed using simulations on a semi-physical simulation platform for MMFSS.
