Annotation. In order to feed air into preparatory roadway of the blind drift a vent system of local ventilation is used, basic elements of which are booster fan (BF) and vent pipeline. Basic calculated technological parameters for choosing proper equipment are air consumption and pipeline diameter and length.

In this article, issues on specifying basic characteristics for the ventilation systems in the blind drifts are considered with taking into account concrete aerodynamic characteristics of the booster fans. Practical value of the work lies in designing of an universal model of ventilating system in the blind drift, which allows using of all compound sources of the draft and pipeline at various modes of airing. In the article, methane concentration of the outgoing stream in the blind drift is defined with the help of differential equations.

Keywords: airing, ventilating pipeline, deadlock development.
