A case study is conducted using modeling analysis
calculation method to decide whether jet fans should be installed in the tunnel
inclined shaft partitioned ventilation system. Then the relationship between
jet fan and axial fan air volume, working surface air volume, fan output power,
the proportion of jet boost, unit air volume energy consumption, etc. is
analyzed. Following conclusions are drawn: (1) With the increasing jet fans in
the partitioned air duct, the air volume of the axial flow fan and the working
face increases synchronously with a small amplification, and the total output
power of the fan will increase sharply. (2) Installing jet fans in the
partitioned air duct to reduce the negative pressure inside the duct and
further to solve the problem of insufficient pressure resistance of the
partition board (color steel plate) is uneconomical and unpractical. (3) The
more jet fans installed in the partitioned air duct, the higher is the energy
consumption per unit air volume of the working face. Hence, it is recommended
not to install jet fans in the partitioned air duct of the ventilation system
for tunnel inclined shafts in order to avoid unnecessary energy consumption and
cost increase. Instead, it is suggested to try the main fan partitioned
ventilation and reduce the leakage rate per hundred meters of the air duct in
order to improve ventilation efficiency and reduce ventilation costs.
