Abstract

In the process of microwave-assisted rock breaking, there are many factors that affect the rock breaking effect, among which the particle size distribution of minerals has an important influence. In this paper, the samples composed of common minerals calcite and pyrite in rocks were used as the research object, and six kinds of mineral particle size ratio schemes were set up. By using COMSOL multi-physical field coupling analysis platform, a binary medium analysis model was established to study the distribution characteristics and evolution law of electromagnetic field, temperature field, stress field and plastic zone of the model after microwave irradiation. The results showed that the mineral particle size ratio had no significant effect on the size and distribution of electromagnetic field, while the central temperature of the sample increased with the increase of particle size ratio; with the extention of irradiation time, the larger the particle size ratio, the greater the first principal stress of the model, and the tensile zone appeared in pyrite; The larger the particle size ratio, the earlier the initiation time of plastic zone, the larger the area of plastic zone, and the more obvious the difference of morphological characteristics of plastic zone. When the size of minerals in the rock was uniform, the weakening effect of microwave irradiation on the rock was better.
