Based on gas seepage characteristics and the basic thermo-solid-gas coupling theory, the porosity model and the dynamic permeability model of coal body containing gas were derived. Based on the relationship between gas pressure, principal stress and temperature, and gas seepage, the thermo-solid-gas coupling dynamic model was established. Initial values and boundary conditions for the model were determined. Numerical simulations using this model were done to predict the gas flow behavior of a gassy coal sample. By using the thermo-solid-gas coupling model, the gas pressure, temperature, and principal stress influence, the change law of the pressure field, displacement field, stress field, temperature field, and permeability were numerically simulated. Research results show the following: (1) Gas pressure and displacement from the top to the end of the model gradually reduce, and stress from the top to the end gradually increases. The average permeability of the Y Z section of the model tends to decrease with the rise of the gas pressure, and the decrease amplitude slows down from the top of the model to the bottom. (2) When the principal stress and temperature are constant, the permeability decreases first and then flattens with the gas pressure. The permeability increases with the decrease of temperature while the gas pressure and principal stress remain unchanged.

To obtain the effects of water content on the permeability of coal, briquette specimen were obtained from Wulong Mine, Liaoning Province. The permeability of the air drying, bounding water and saturating specimens were tested with self-made equipment respectively, and the effects of water content on permeability for coal were studied. The results showed that: (1)The permeability of specimens decreases with confining pressure increasing, and the air drying and bounding water specimens take on obvious slippage effect. However the saturated specimens never take on slippage effects. It is because the channels of saturated coal sample are occupied by water. When the gas goes through specimens, gas never is absorbed. Collision between gas and the channel wall decreases, and the slippage effect disappears. (2) With water content increasing, the permeability of specimens decreases. (3)The permeability of specimens increases when pore pressure increases.

CO2 injection into coal seam triggers a series of processes that are coupled all together through a permeability model. Previous studies have shown that current permeability models cannot explain experimental data as reported in the literature. This knowledge gap defines the goal of this study. We hypothesize that this failure originates from the assumption that the pore strain is the same as the bulk strain in order to satisfy the Betti-Maxwell reciprocal theorem. This assumption is valid only for the initial state without gas sorption and deformation and for the ultimate state with uniform gas sorption and uniform deformation within the REV (representative elementary volume). In this study, we introduce the pore-bulk strain ratio and interference time to characterize the process of gas sorption and its associated nonuniform deformation from the initial state to the ultimate state. This leads to a new nonequilibrium permeability model. We use the model to fully couple the coal deformation and gas flow. This new coupled model captures the impact of coal local transient behaviors on gas flow. Results of this study clearly show that coal permeability is constrained by the magnitudes of initial and ultimate pore-bulk strain ratios and interference time, that current permeability data in the literature are within these bounds, and that the evolutions of coal permeability all experience similar stages from the initial value to the ultimate one.

Abstract Titanium generally is reactive to dry, gaseous chlorine. A small amount of water in gaseous chlorine will inhibit this reaction. A testing program showed the amount of water required for inhibition varied with exposure conditions from about 0.20 to 1.1 over the range of about 25 to 175 C (77–347 F). When water content in the gaseous chlorine is sufficient titanium can be considered passive. Data were obtained mostly by scratching to expose fresh titanium surfaces to gaseous chlorine and observing reactions. Under some conditions a definite reaction sequence often took place, which could be observed from initiation to ignition of a specimen. Some data were obtained from exposure of undisturbed titanium specimens in gaseous chlorine. The water content required to passivate titanium in chlorine gas was found to be dependent upon temperature, gas flow rate and chlorine pressure. It was affected also by titanium surface condition, some roughened surfaces showing increased reactivity. Under static conditions involving chlorine of high purity, water required was greater than under flow conditions in dried, crude Hooker cell chlorine. Undisturbed titanium surfaces exposed at 195 C (382 F) for over a year showed no reaction when chlorine water content was 1.5 percent or more.

Gas flow mechanisms in shale are urgent to clarify due to the complicated pore structure and low permeability. Core flow experiments were conducted under reservoir net confining stress with samples from the Longmaxi Shale to investigate the characteristics of nonlinear gas flow. Meanwhile, microstructure analyses and gas adsorption experiments are implemented. Experimental results indicate that non-Darcy flow in shale is remarkable and it has a close relationship with pore pressure. It is found that type of gas has a significant influence on permeability measurement and methane is chosen in this work to study the shale gas flow. Gas slippage effect and minimum threshold pressure gradient weaken with the increasing backpressure. It is demonstrated that gas flow regime would be either slip flow or transition flow with certain pore pressure and permeability. Experimental data computations and microstructure analyses confirm that hydraulic radius of flow tubes in shale are mostly less than 100 nm, indicating that there is no micron scale pore or throat which mainly contributes to flow. The results are significant for the study of gas flow in shale, and are beneficial for laboratory investigation of shale permeability.
