Experiment research on the influence of cored heat pipe on temperature field of high temperature coal pile

In order to study the influence characteristics of cored heat pipes on the temperature field of coal pile and the feasibility of preventing the spontaneous combustion of coal pile, the heat transfer law of two kinds of heat pipes with core and without core under different heat source temperature conditions was tested by experiments, and the heat transfer effect of different arrangement modes of cored heat pipes on large area coal pile was analyzed by numerical simulation. The results show that under different heat source temperature conditions, the maximum cooling range of cored heat pipe is 130.6 K, and the maximum cooling range of non-cored heat pipe is 118.6 K. The influence of heat pipes on the internal temperature field of coal pile can be divided into three regions according to the distance: high efficiency cooling zone, transition zone and slow cooling zone; the high temperature area inside the coal pile is smaller with triangular tube group arrangement; the best heat transfer effect is obtained when the spacing between tubes is 25 cm; compared with the tube group arrangement, the distance between tubes has more influence on the heat transfer effect of the core heat pipe.
