B.Tech. II Year II Sem. \u00a0 \u00a0L\/T\/P\/C
\nCourse Code: MN402ES 4\/1\/0\/4<\/p>\n
Course Objectives:<\/strong> Course Outcomes:<\/strong> UNIT-I Exploratory Drilling:<\/strong> UNIT-II Production Drilling:<\/strong> UNIT-III Explosives:<\/strong>
\nTo familiarize the students with exploratory and production drilling including the factors affecting drilling; Various types of the explosives and blasting techniques used in underground and opencast mining are also explained besides blasting in civil constructions projects.<\/p>\n
\nDrilling and blasting is primary operation in any mining organization, student understands various methods of drilling, design and selection of drilling methods. Knowledge about explosives and blasting techniques makes student confident in design of blasting operations in the field.<\/p>\n
\nDrilling for exploration and other purposes; diamond drillingequipment and principal of operation, it\u2019s merits, demerits and limitations; core recovery \u2014 single and double tube core barrels; wire line drilling; directional drilling; fishing tools; borehole surveying; borehole logging; novel and special drilling techniques, Horizontal and directional drilling.<\/p>\n
\nVarious methods and mechanics of drilling -percussive, rotaryand rotary percussive. Jack hammer drilling, Top hammer and Down the Hole (DTH) hammer drills. Drillability: Drillabilty studies, Factors affecting drilling- operational parameters (like air pressure, thrust, r.p.m., flushing, bit type and bit geometry etc.) and physico-mechanical properties ( like strength properties, hardness, abrasivity etc.) design and selection of drills; bit wear and reconditioning of drill bits; drill hole economics.<\/p>\n
\nClassification and properties of explosives, Types of explosives \u2013 Permitted type, slurry explosives, SMS and PMS, ANFO, LOX, boosters, blasting agents. Mechanics of blasting, alternatives to explosives. Accessories and Tools: Accessories- different types of detonators, safety fuses, detonating cords, relays, NONEL, exploders, sequential blasting machines and other shot firing tools, testing of explosives, storage, transportation and handling of explosives.<\/p>\n
