Abstract
With the increasing requirements of environmental protection, a large number of new wet dust suppression technologies are used in the port in recent years, such as watering at the bottom of the Dumper Shed, etc. So the moisture content of coal is more than 10% often appear. Relevant studies show that the amount of dust from coal (conventional moisture content) pile is directly proportional to the high power of wind speed. But studies on high moisture content coal are rare. In this study, Wind tunnel test was carried out to study the dust emission behavior of coal with high moisture content (13.7% and 14.3%). The results show that the relationship between coal dust and wind speed tends to be linear under high moisture content. The study can provide a basis research for the estimation of coal dust emission in port.
