    The main sources of heat in mine air are: 1) High temperature surface air entering the mine carrying heat from the surface. 2) Heat due to auto-compression of 1.1 KPa or 1°C per 100 meters of depth. 3) Heat from the surrounding rock due to a geothermal gradient of 2.5°C per 100 meters.

    Sources of heat in Mine Air

     • High temperature of surface air


    • Surface air entering the mine can carry with it some heat if the surface
    temperature is high compared to the underground temperature.
    • Heat due to auto-compression
    • 1.1 KPa per 100 meter or 1°C per 100 meter

    • Heat from rock due to geothermal gradient

    • Geothermal gradient is 2.5 °C per 100 meter.


    • Heat from men

    Nature of work Light work Moderate work Hard work


    Metabolic heat rate

    • Heat from machinery
    • Heat from lights
    • Heat due to oxidation
    • Heat due to blasting
    • Heat caused by rock movement
