Abstract
Numerical simulation method has been used to study the process of oxygen density consumption and for leakage flow in the partition coal pillars close to the goaf of comprehensive coal face with caving method for top seam. The equations of air leakage flow and seepage diffusion-consumption of oxygen density in the flowing field of coal pillar are derived. The dynamic process of air leakage flow and oxygen density distribution is revealed. Thus a new method is provided for analysing the sponta- neous combustion in the loose coal pillar and determining the depth of the dangerous zone of spontaneous combustion.
