Abstract

The invention relates to a method for simulating the flow of temporary plugging agents in complex fracture networks of hot dry rocks. The method studies the migration process of granular temporary plugging agents in complex fractures of hot dry rocks, and constructs a physical model of complex fractures and simulated particles. The CFD-DEM coupling model of the transport process of the type temporary plugging agent in the complex fracture network of dry hot rocks, the particles of the temporary plugging agent are regarded as discrete phases, the fluid is regarded as a continuous phase, and the interaction between particles and fluids and the interaction between particles are considered. At the same time, the influence of temperature changes on the deformation, aggregation and friction coefficient of temporary plugging agent particles is also considered to realize the bidirectional coupling calculation of continuous phase and particle phase. The movement of temporary blocking agent particles follows Newton’s second law, and its motion equation is solved in the Lagrangian coordinate system to obtain information such as the position, velocity and force of the temporary blocking agent at different times, thereby overcoming the Euler-Euler description. The defect of the method truly reflects the movement process of the particles.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of numerical simulation of temporary plugging and diversion fracturing of hot dry rocks, in particular to a flow simulation method for temporary plugging agents in complex fracture networks of hot dry rocks. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of my country's economy, the demand for energy is increasing day by day. At the same time, the energy crisis and environmental problems that my country is facing in the process of industrial development are becoming more and more serious. my country's existing energy structure is dependent on fossil fuels such as coal and oil. There are many problems such as high dependence on imported fossil fuels and serious environmental pollution, and there is an urgent need to develop new alternative energy sources with large reserves and environmental friendliness. In recent years, hot dry rock geothermal resources, which are widely distributed in my country a...
