摘要
In order to study the impact of fractures on the ultrasonic velocity, multi-azimuth ultrasonic velocity of coal were tested under the pressure similar to buried stratum in Qinshui Basin. The experimental results shows that: 1) fractures will reduce ultrasonic velocity, but when the confining pressure increases to 10 MPa, most of fractures are closed together, the velocity comes table; and 2)orientation of fractures makes certain impact on acoustic propagation velocity.
