Popis: The role of coal mine underground reservoirs (CMUR) in ‘guide storage and use’ greatly solves the problem of mine water waste. Replenishment and prediction of reservoir water sources provide an important support for the successful development of key technologies concerning CMUR. To study water replenishment for CMUR, the hydrogeological conditions of the Shendong mining area were investigated as an example. Based on the relationship between the development height of the ‘two belts’ of shallow coal seams and the relative occurrence of location of aquifers, the aquifers are generalized and classified according to occurrences location. Taking Bulianta coal mine as the research background, a discrete element fluid–solid coupling numerical simulation model is constructed to analyze the development characteristics of mining-induced fractures after coal seam mining, and the water replenishment channel of the CMUR is determined. On this basis, analysis is made on the change law of water pressure in the aquifer, aquifuge and coal seam roof under mining action. Taking hydraulic head pressure and water velocity as the judgment basis, prediction and evaluation are made on the water replenishment capacity of CMUR. The research results can provide references for coal mine safety production and mine water protection and utilization. HIGHLIGHTS Based on the water-conducting fractured zone, the occurrence type of ‘coal-water’ is generalized.; The change law of aquifer under different ‘coal-water’ conditions is revealed.; The source and amount of water supply for CMUR were obtained under different conditions.;
