Experimental investigation on the hazard of geyser created by an entrapped air release in baffle-drop shafts

Abstract The geyser phenomenon seriously threatens the safe operation of deep tunnel drainage systems and drop shaft structural safety. To simulate the geyser process in a baffle-drop shaft, a 1:50 scale model test system was used to research the response relationship between the geyser mechanism an...
