Investigation of Blasting Fumes using Numerical Simulations (Room Capitol Ballroom 5-7; Fourth Floor)

2:00 PM - 2:30 PM

Tracks: Session 5 - Underground

Speaker(s): Akash Adhikari
Studies show that as much as 60% to 70% of the fumes produced during underground blasting can remain entrapped in the adjacent rock mass or in the muckpile. This study uses a CFD, scFLOW Software to analyze the flow of the entrapped fumes.
