Abstract—The mine ventilation optimization and airflow control are the mine ventilation system's two important aspects, good ventilation optimization design can deliver fresh air to establish good work environment and provide a scientific and reliable basis to prevent disaster. Based on the air distribution request of the mine ventilation network, carries on the optimized computation to the mine ventilation system network, fuses the dynamic perturbation and the simulated annealing to improve the harmony search algorithm, the improved harmony search algorithm enhances the convergent speed, has overcome certain limitations of the traditional ventilation network optimizing control algorithm. In the mine ventilation analysis, the improved harmony search through proper tuning these parameters was presented. The simulation results show that the method outperforms the conventional nonlinear programming approach whether from the viewpoint of the number of iterations required to find the optimum solutions or from the final solutions obtained. Mine fire is a very complex physicochemical process. Once it happens, there are lots of poisonous and harmful gas ingredients. Additionally, the fume caused by the fire will block the vision and decrease the visibility, which will impede human evacuation and fire fighting, moreover, it is easy to cause the gas and coal dust explosion. So it is very important for the evacuation of miners and mining salvation to research the air flow control during mine fire. Airflow control based on harmony search has provided a scientific and reliable basis to develop disaster prevention and processing.
