The invention relates to a
coal and rock
directional well sand fracturing physical
simulation method, which comprises the following steps of selecting
coal and rock materials according to the weak face development features of the
coal and rock in a simulated stratum, and
processing the coal and rock materials into coal and rock block bodies; preparing a
wellbore hole simulator of a
directional well according to the well deviation angle of a borehole of the
directional well of the simulated stratum; covering the coal and rock block bodies with a water-resisting layer, and meanwhile, performing outside pouring on the coal and rock block bodies covered by the water-resisting layer by selecting a covering layer, thus forming a coal and rock fracturing
physical model test specimen; drilling a simulated borehole and a horizontal groove of the directional well in the coal and rock fracturing
physical model test specimen, and fixedly bonding the
wellbore hole simulator of the directional well into the simulated borehole and the horizontal groove of the directional well; preparing
fracturing fluid containing supporting agents, and filling the
wellbore hole simulator of the directional well with the
fracturing fluid; performing
simulation experiments on the coal and rock fracturing
physical model test specimen by using a true triaxial
hydraulic fracturing system; and observing the steering expansion form of the hydraulic fracture in a position near the pit shaft and the conveying distribution features of the supporting agents. The physical
simulation method provided by the invention has the advantages that the operation is simple; the accuracy is high; and the physical simulation method conforms to the actual
hydraulic fracturing condition.
