To reduce the hazardous effect of coal fires, gas-heat dynamic characteristics were investigated in the closed fire zone. A temperature-programmed experiment and a C80 microcalorimeter were employed to evaluate the heating and decaying processes of coal spontaneous combustion, CO production and thermal oxidation were compared to analyze the gas-heat dynamic relationship and nonlinear dynamics. The results revealed that CO production and the heat flux exhibited obvious hysteresis in the decaying process, the oxygen concentration linearly increased with the total CO production and cumulative heat release. Moreover, the heat release in the heating process was lower than that in the decaying process under identical oxygen-poor conditions, this mechanism increasingly dominated with increasing oxygen concentration. Additionally, the total CO production exhibited a good linear relationship with the cumulative heat release during the heating process, the decaying process exhibited a nonlinear trend due to the hysteresis effect. Compared with that of the heating process, the apparent activation energy of the decaying process was lower, the coal spontaneous combustion risk was higher and reignition was more likely to occur. These research results are great practical significance for inhibiting coal fire hazards and guiding fire area unsealing in the closed fire zone.
