Prediction of coal dust particle size after spraying dust reduction in roadway based on orthogonal experiment and regression analysis by Bingyou JIANG, Yuqian ZHANG, Changfei YU, Ben JI, Haoyu WANG, Zhuang LIU

“…The results show that: the coal dust D90 after spray dust reduction decreases with the increase of the distance from the dust source to the spray frame, increases and then decreases with the increase of wind speed, and increases with the increase of water supply pressure, and there is a strong positive correlation between full dust, exhaled dust reduction efficiency and D90, the better the spray dust reduction effect, the larger the coal dust D90 after spray dust reduction; the weighting-based prediction model of coal dust D90 after dust spraying has higher accuracy and smaller error, and can accurately characterize the quantitative relationship between coal dust D90 after dust spraying and three influencing factors, namely, the distance of the spray frame from the dust source, the wind speed of the roadway, and the water supply pressure of the nozzle.…”
