To solve the problem of dividing the hazardous zone of spontaneous combustion in boreholes, a fully coupled model of the gas flow, coal oxidation reaction, and energy transportation is developed in this study. Taking the drainage borehole of the 24130 working face in the No. 10 Coal Mine of the Pingdingshan mining area as an example, the proposed model is used to simulate the seepage velocity field, oxygen concentration field, and temperature field of the coal around the borehole. The simulation results are found to be consistent with the field test results. Based on the simulation results, the coal around the borehole is divided into two areas in the axial direction of the borehole. The intersection of the seepage velocity u ≤ 0.004 m/s and oxygen concentration 7% ≤ C (O 2 ) ≤ 21% are considered the “hazardous zone”, and the union of the oxygen concentration C (O 2 ) < 7% and seepage velocity u > 0.004 m/s are considered the “safety zone”. The influences of various factors inducing spontaneous combustion of coal around the borehole on the hazardous zone are revealed by analyzing the drainage negative pressure, sealing length, and roadway temperature. The results show that reducing the drainage negative pressure and increasing the sealing length can effectively restrain the spontaneous c...
