The invention discloses a device and a method for kinetic study of
drilling fluid and
natural gas hydrate. The device comprises a gas source, a
booster pump, a
buffer tank, a reaction kettle and a
vacuum pump which are connected in sequence, wherein a pressure adjusting valve is arranged between the gas source and the
booster pump; a valve is arranged between the
booster pump and the
buffer tank; the
buffer tank is connected with the reaction kettle through two branches; the pressure adjusting valve and the valve are arranged on the branches respectively; the two branches are joined and connected with the reaction kettle through the valve; two branches are arranged at the output end of the reaction kettle, one
branch is connected with the
vacuum pump through the valve, and a valve and a
back pressure valve are arranged on the other
branch respectively; a temperature sensor and a
pressure sensor are arranged on the buffer tank and the reaction kettle respectively; a camera
storage tube, a
conductivity meter, a magnetic stirring
paddle and a transparent observation window are also arranged on the reaction kettle; and a stainless steel lining is arranged at the inner side of the reaction kettle. According to the device and the method, the process of conversion of the
drilling fluid in the kettle from liquid to
hydrate can be conveniently shot and observed, and the change of the liquid resistance in the reaction kettle along with the reaction time can be represented.
