Abstract

Reversal of main ventilation is one of the important means to isolate a fire during emergency. In America, it has been reported that by fan reversal lives have been saved in underground coal mine. Indian coal mines have so far not come forward to adopt this method. Not much research work has so far been carried out in India. This paper deals with international review of the work carried out in other countries. Law relating to reversal of ventilation in different countries of the world is discussed. The effect of reversal on goaf gases and adjustment of ventilating flow is also outlined.
