Experimental investigations on effects of gas pressure on mechanical behaviors and failure characteristic of coals

Yi Xue et al.

Summary: The mechanical behavior of coal under different gas pressures was investigated in this study. The influence of gas pressure on the mechanical properties of coal and the energy input and dissipation during loading were analyzed. The effects of gas pressure on coal strength were also theoretically analyzed. The results show that the absorbed energy in the axial pressure direction accounts for the main proportion of the total absorbed energy by coal.

Numerical investigation on microwave-thermal recovery of shale gas based on a fully coupled electromagnetic, heat transfer, and multiphase flow model

Jia Liu et al.

Summary: Technical advances in horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing have improved shale gas development, but sustainability is a challenge. Microwave irradiation can be used as an auxiliary technology for hydraulic fracturing to promote sustainable development. This study developed a fully coupled model to investigate the multiphysics coupling mechanisms and optimize recovery schemes for shale gas. The proposed model provides theoretical guidance for the field application of microwave-thermal recovery of shale gas.

A critical review of coal permeability models

Qi Gao et al.

Summary: The evolution of coal permeability is complex and has led to the development of numerous models. Despite efforts to evaluate these models, the reasons for discrepancies between observations and predictions have not been identified. This study examines the models and concludes that they can be categorized into equilibrium and non-equilibrium models based on the internal structure of coal, boundary conditions, and equilibrium state. It is found that the exclusion of equilibration process is the root cause of discrepancies and suggests future research should integrate rock structure, boundary conditions, and equilibration process in coal permeability models.

In-situ stress and permeability causality model of a low-rank coalbed methane reservoir in southwestern Ordos Basin, China

Yabing Lin et al.

Summary: The study investigates the relationship between in-situ stress and permeability in low-rank CBM blocks, concluding that the coal reservoir in the Binchang block is in a state of relative tension. A stress-permeability model and geological model were established, showing that permeability is most sensitive to maximum horizontal stress and least sensitive to vertical stress. The model suggests that highly permeable zones develop at specific burial depths due to structural conditions created by relative tension stress.
