Safety in coal mining is greatly increased by the drainage of the methane content of coal seams through boreholes, simultaneously producing significant energy. The design of suitable drainage technology is based on the mathematical modeling of methane flow in coal seams. In the calculation of the methane pressure, the new mathematical model presented in this paper considers both the sorption phenomenon of methane depending upon the methane pressure and the fact that the variation in methane pressure can create a change in the stress condition of the rock and, as a consequence of this, a change in the permeability of the coal. The new mathematical model can be used for the numerical simulation of the flow processes in coal seams and methane drainage technology can be designed more accurately.

Brown coals, because of their high as-mined moisture contents, are dried as they are transported through the drying system of a power station mill, by hot gas taken from the boiler combustion chamber. In this paper, a mathematical model of the drying process that occurs in this system is developed a
