A sealed area known to have black damp has 18% O2, 2% CO2, and 78% N2. If fresh air has 21% O2, 0.03% CO2 and 78.97% N2, the percentage of black damp in the are is

Air samples collected from the intake and the return gates of a retreating longwall face show methane concentration values of 0.1% and 0.8% respectively. The production from the longwall face is 2000 tonne/day and the air quantity circulating the face is 15 m3/s. The rate of methane emission in m3 per tonne of coal produced is

In order to estimate the NVP in a mine, measurements are made at the main fan as shown below.
Fan speed (RPM) Fan drift pressure (Pa) Fan quantity (m3/s)
800 655 82.2
950 730 85.5

The NVP in Pa is
