The invention provides a method for detecting a
coal field fire district distribution range, which is applicable to detection of
coal field fire distribution ranges and development degree. According to the characteristic that
coal field fire often happens in a
coal petrography scattering area, a geological
radar and a transient electromagnetic instrument detect electromagnetic wave amplitudes and secondary induction electromagnetic fields in a detection area, and a distribution range of the
coal petrography scattering area in the detection area is defined. Gas measurement
drill hole is constructed in the defined
coal petrography scattering area in the detection area, gas in the
drill hole is sampled, and compositions and concentrations of
carbon monoxide,
acetylene and
ethylene in a gas sample is analyzed. A
gas concentration distribution contour map is developed according to analysis results of the gas sample, the area with low concentration is the edge of the fire district, and the area with
high concentration is the area with serious fire district development degree. By means of pre-detection of the coal petrography scattering area, pertinence of the fire district detection
drill hole is improved, construction amount of the detection
drill hole is reduced, and detection cost is saved. The method for detecting the
coal field fire district distribution range is simple and high in detection accuracy, and has wide practical applicability in the field of detection of the
coal field fire district.
