VENTILATION
SYSTEM
EM 165: Mine Ventilation
MSU-IIT
COE
VENTILATION SYSTEM
Every UG mine is unique
Classification:
 Mine systems
 District systems
 Auxiliary ventilation systems
VENTILATION SYSTEM: MINE SYSTEM
 Fresh air enters via downcast shafts or other surface connections.
 Air flows along intake airways to working areas where most pollutants are
added.
 Contaminated air returns back through the system along return airways.
 The return air passes back up to the surface via upcast shafts or other surface
return connections.

VENTILATION SYSTEM: MINE SYSTEM
Active Devices: adds energy to air to direct it to where it
is needed
 Main Fan: primary means of producing and
controlling the ventilation airflow; usually located
near the surface
Types of main
fan systems:

Active Devices: Main Fan
Exhausting vs. Forcing Fan System
Gas control (control during falls of barometer and fan
stoppage favors exhausting)
Transportation (selection depends on whether
transporting mineral through intake or return airways)
Fan maintenance (exhaust fan subjected to air carrying
dust, warmer air, and water droplets, thus the combined
effects of impaction and corrosion are greater than in
forcing case)
Fan performance (cooler air implies lower mass flow duty
for a forcing fan and hence for a certain airflow, a reduced
pressure and running costs). However, this effect is
VENTILATION SYSTEM: MINE SYSTEM
Active Devices: Main Fan
Push-Pull Fan System
For metalliferous mine employing caving technique
Employed in multi-shaft mines for better distribution of
airflow, greater flexibility, better control over pressure
and leakage, reduced operating cost.
VENTILATION SYSTEM: MINE SYSTEM
Active Devices: Main Fan
Advantages:
1. Simpler Installation
2. Simpler Testing
3. Simpler Maintenance
4. Easier Access
5. Better Protection in
Emergency Situation

 Booster Fan: employed
when air flows through a
ventilation network loses
energy.
Advantages:
 No need to upgrade existing main fan facilities,
avoiding capital and operating cost increases; and
 Only a proportion of the whole mine airflow is
boosted, saving operational costs compared to having
to boost the whole mine airflow.
VENTILATION SYSTEM: MINE SYSTEM
Passive Devices: add resistance to flow routes to
encourage the air to flow along other routes

 Air Doors and Airlocks: employed to minimize short-
circuiting of
ventilation flow by
increasing resistance
of a potential short-
circuit route
VENTILATION SYSTEM: MINE SYSTEM
Passive Devices: add resistance to flow routes to
encourage the air to flow along other routes
 Regulators: an air door
fitted with an adjustable
orifice for reduction of
airflow in a particular
section downstream to a
defined airflow by increasing
the resistance of the airway

 Air crossing: installed where intake and return
airways need to cross over each other
Forms:
Natural
Intersection
Prefabricated
VENTILATION SYSTEM: MINE SYSTEM
Passive Devices: Air crossing
Types:
Overcast: roof is ripped over one of the galleries, two
chambers constructed and one of the air currents,
usually the return is made to go via top chamber.
Undercast: the floor-dug up to make the two chamber,
and one of the air currents, usually the return, is made
to flow through the lower chamber.
VENTILATION SYSTEM: MINE SYSTEM
Passive Devices:
Stoppings: blockage placed between intake and return
airways which was previously used to provide quick
access but no longer required
Seals: constructed to prevent unwanted
air loss from a ventilation system and to
preclude oxygen from entering mined-out
areas to prevent spontaneous combustion
