Problems solved by technology

[0003] In recent years, although some researchers have simulated the mining process of hydrates, due to the complex and changeable mining environment, there is a big discrepancy between the simulation experiment and the actual situation.
For example, the invention patent with the publication number CN104405345A discloses a permeable boundary layer natural gas hydrate mining simulation experiment device. Although the simulated production of hydrate can be completed, there is no simulated wellbore during the hydrate production, which is different from the actual production process. There is a large gap, and it is impossible to monitor the decomposition of hydrates and temperature changes during the mining process, and it is also impossible to monitor the sand production of hydrate mining
A master's thesis titled "Research on One-Dimensional Simulating Experimental Device for Natural Gas Hydrate" has studied the temperature change during the hydrate decomposition process, but this research also does not have the ability to simulate wellbore and sand production in hydrate production. In the test, only the pore pressure of the formation can be simulated, and other in-situ stress conditions are not considered. The actual hydrate production is carried out in the in-situ stress environment, and the stress state has great influence on the seepage of the fluid in the pores and the time of production. The sand production characteristics have a great influence
