Abstract:

In order to study the coupling influence of multi-factor on liquid CO2 freeze-thaw cracking coal, a liquid CO2 freeze-thaw cracking test device was designed. The nuclear magnetic resonance testing technology was used to measure the porosity of coal after liquid CO2 freeze-thaw cracking under different influencing factors. The effects of liquid CO2 freezing time (t), number of freeze-thaw cycles (n) and water saturation (W) on coal porosity (φ) were studied. The quadratic regression response surface model of φ with t, n and W was constructed by response surface method. The sensitivity of t, n and W to φ single and coupled was analyzed, and the influence characteristics were predicted, optimized and verified under different influencing factors. The results show that the φ changes exponentially with the increase of t and n, and linearly with the increase of W. The influencing factors t, n and W are all extremely significant terms of φ (significant discriminant value P<0.01), and the influence relationship of to φ is as follows: n>W>t. The interaction between nt and Wt is very significant, followed by nW and Wt. The primary and secondary effects on φ are nt>nW>Wt. When t, n and W are 57 min, 19 times and 96%, respectively, the maximum value of φ is 9.47%. The average error between the four test values and the predicted value of the model is 2.98%, and the measured average value of φ is 9.58%, which is 7.16% higher than that before optimization (8.94%).
