MINE CHARACTERISTIC

Domain	Definition
Mining	The relation between pressure, p, and volume, Q, in the ventilation of a mine. If the resistance, R, of the mine is known, then the mine characteristic can be expressed as p=RQ2 . The curve of this equation for a particular mine may thus be plotted on the same axes as the characteristics of a fan. The point of intersection of this curve, termed the mine characteristic, with the pressure characteristic of the fan, indicates the pressure and volume at which the fan would work in ventilating that mine. Knowing the volume and pressure, the power and efficiency are obtained. The suitability of any fan to any mine can be studied, and the effect of possible changes in mine resistance may bepredicted.
