Superior mine ventilation simulation software

VUMA-network is an interactive mine ventilation network simulation programme developed to assist mine ventilation engineers and practitioners in planning, designing, operating, and controlling the ventilation and cooling systems of underground mines.

Allows for the simultaneous simulation of:

Airflow

Air thermodynamic behaviour

Gasses (including radon and DPM)

Dust emissions

Heat, cooling and refrigeration

Some of the key features are

What-If Analysis

The comparison of different simulations to see the knock-on effect of any changes in input parameters.

Coal Module

  • Developed to satisfy the specific needs of a coal mine.
  • Controls airflow and pollutant [dust, gas, smoke, etc.] distributions interactively throughout a coal mine-ventilation circuit.

Blast Module

  • Clearance and tracking of contaminants.
  • Determine blast clearance time.

Escape Route Planning

Allows for safe travel distance planning from working areas to refuge chamber

Fire Module

  • Considers combustion effects of fire on the network, i.e. ventilation flow turnaround.
  • Simulates the success of possible firefighting scenarios.
  • Simulates whether existing fire control measures are adequate e.g. doors installed to control a conveyor belt fire.
