Abstract
Abstract Purpose The trapped geothermal heat in the infinite rock mass through which mine tunnels are excavated is a great threat to the safety of personnel and mine operating equipment in deep underground hot mines. In order to lessen the temperature inside the tunnel a considerable amount of energy is being spent by the way of using ventilation and cooling systems to dissipate the heat. However, operational costs of the system rise quite considerably, especially as the mines get deeper. Shotcrete is used both as a structural lining and as an effective insulation to reduce the heat load on the ventilation and cooling system within such tunnels. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach In order to analyse this problem of heat flow and thermal stresses and their time dependent pattern, several cylindrical models, in both analytical and numerical forms, are discussed and compared in this paper. Findings This study shows the validation of ABAQUS® software to predict the time dependent temperature and the thermal stresses in mine tunnels through the comparisons with the available analytical models. Further, thermal insulation effects of shotcrete are also evaluated with these theoretical models and it is found that all the models gave results in close agreements with one another. Originality/value Therefore, this study provides the theoretical proof for advantages in applying shotcrete as the thermal insulation layer in underground mines.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
