In Part 1 of “The Management of Heat Flow in Deep Mines” the sources of heat, mechanism of heat transfer and strategies of controlling heat transfer have been discussed. Part 2 deals with the effects of heat on the human body and mine cooling strategies for deep mines. In detail the effects of heat on a worker are examined, heat stress and heat tolerance discussed and methods of assessing heat stress...
With the ever‐increasing depth of mines, the management of heat has become a key issue for their design and operation. There are two main sources of heat: heat transfer from the rock mass into the mine workings and heat associated with mining operations. The principles of heat transfer from the rock mass are discussed and basic relationships presented. Sources of heat linked to mining operations are...
